about
Since 2016

From Corporate Logistics to Industry Innovator

Built Different From Day One.

 

Look, there’s no shortage of freight companies out there.

But when our founder, Sean Friedlund, spent 15 years managing logistics for Fortune 500 companies, he noticed something…

 

The freight industry was stuck in the stone age.

 

Endless phone calls. Unreturned emails. Zero transparency.

And worst of all?

 

Nobody seemed to care about actually SOLVING problems.

 

Most providers were great at making promises.

Not so great at keeping them.

In 2016, he decided to build the freight company he wished existed:

 

One that answered the phone at 3 AM

One that found solutions instead of making excuses

One that treated every shipment like it was their own

17 years later, that vision has grown into something bigger than we ever imagined.

 

But those core principles haven’t changed one bit.

 

Today, that one-man operation has grown into a $20M+/year industry leader, trusted by some of America’s fastest-growing companies. But Sean’s original vision hasn’t changed:

 

“We’re still obsessed with solving problems, not making excuses. That’s what got us here, and that’s what’ll continue to make us a leader in the space.”
