Freight Brokers Transportation Partners
We review the relationships we have with our providers on a quarterly basis. We use providers that are responsible, efficient and responsive. Our providers are tracked quarterly on their performance: percentage of on time deliveries tops our list!
Value is our prime consideration
There is no advantage in a cheap rate when the shipment does not arrive on time, your customer complains, you get aggravation, or it results in a loss of business and revenue.
We vet all our providers with stringent prerequisites before we even consider making them a partner.
After all, just because somehow has a cheap rate doesn’t make them a good carrier.
