Our take
Historically, when a shipper hired a carrier to transport goods, it was not easy to get real-time information or to find out if there were issues in the supply chain.
This is just one of many problems in logistics services that Transfix is looking to solve through its digital platform and carrier network. They provide the shipper with real-time visibility so they can track shipments. Transfix also automates the traditional brokerage process so carriers do not need so many employees. More efficient logistics and less wastage create a better and cheaper overall service.
Over the last few years the company has seen rapid growth, more than quadrupling in revenue and tripling the size of its customer base. Although it has deferred its 2022 plans to go public due to difficult market conditions, it has instead raised additional funding to further expand its business and develop its platform. In an globalized world, freight and supply chain management are set to be increasingly important, and Transfix is well poised to continue its growth in this market.
