Company mission

22% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
The pandemic has highlighted the fragility of global supply chains. Freight forwarding platforms help to alleviate these concerns by directly connecting enterprise shippers with trucking companies, thus disintermediating the traditional freight model.
Instafreight seeks to differentiate itself by focusing on key logistics platforms integrations, delivering a smooth and data-informed platform for managers handling road freight.
The company is determined to enhance its product to compete with other startups in the space, like OnTrac and Sennder, with enhanced data insights and other features.
After an extremely tumultuous period in shipping, the startup has built long-term partnerships with the likes of DPD, securing its growth through the coming years.
