HŽ Cargo (lit. 'Croatian Railways Cargo') is a Croatian state-owned freight transport company. It was formed on 20 July 2006 from the Croatian Railways' cargo branch in order to comply with EU directive 91/440, as part of Croatia's accession process to join the European Union, and began operations in 1 January 2007. Its current CEO is Dragan Marčinko. The management also includes the supervisory board, the audit board and the Minister of Sea, Transport and Infrastructure Oleg Butković.
Ever since the market was liberated in 2013 and private cargo companies were allowed on Croatian tracks, HŽ Cargo has lost market share. In 2023, the Government of Croatia began a process to sell the company.
