Path2Rail: Harnessing the Speed of Passenger Rail Networks to Deliver Small Freight Packages
From conception, with our core knowledge and experience in B2B/B2C and out-of-home and multi-modal supply chain logistics, we were determined to set the standard for multiple freight options aboard existing passenger rail services. The team here at Blue Otter developed the industry’s first freight management and real time tracking system providing visibility of each transit stage from pre-alert, loading activities right through to on-demand tracking data detailing usage and even expected incoming revenue. Partnering with Path2Lab we combined our expertise in IT, documentation and programme management with their renowned reputation for operational excellence.
Our collaboration has perfected the model for one of the most demanding environments: transporting various types of UN3373 biomedical samples on behalf of leading healthcare organisations; from ambient, time critical deliveries through to transferring temperature acute cryogenic matter.
The Path2Rail service is immediately available in selected areas of the UK and is ideally suited to clinics, laboratories and other healthcare organisations (including NHS) to improve logistics performance – it is also available to other industries requiring rapid and secure transit of items such as sensitive legal documents, high-value retail goods and operational/technical engineering spare part services.
Path2Rail: Multi-modal rail options have arrived! The future of urgent, same-day delivery is here, and it runs on rails – aboard existing, fast and frequent passenger services.

We are now Blue Otter…
On 15th August 2025 we filed a change of name from KAHA Logistik to Blue Otter Limited with Companies House.
(all other company contact details and particulars remain the same)
Why did we do this?
When we formed KAHA Logistik back in 2020 the scope of work conducted was generally concerned with helping clients reduce cost and improve their carrier / final mile performance - something in which we still excel at and are always delighted to help with!
Having expanded into other areas of expertise, put simply, our original name was no longer aligned with today’s offer, which is:
• E-commerce Strategy
• Tactical Sourcing
• Carrier & Supply Chain
• Cost Reduction
• Change Management
• Rail Freight (Passenger Services)
