What We Do

In their words

What Our Customers Say

Forefront doesn’t operate like a typical freight broker. They took the time to understand our business, identified opportunities to improve our transportation network and consistently delivered on what they promised. They’ve become a true strategic partner for our company.

President, National Manufacturing Company
Strategic partnership

Forefront helped us identify inefficiencies in several of our regular lanes and ultimately reduced our transportation spend by nearly 15%. More importantly, we didn’t have to sacrifice service to get there.

Director of Logistics, Manufacturing Company
Cost savings

We had a critical shipment fall through late in the day and needed a truck immediately. Forefront had a solution within the hour and kept our team updated through delivery. They’ve become the first call we make when something needs to get done.

Operations Manager, Industrial Equipment Company
Last-minute capacity

The biggest difference with Forefront is communication. We aren’t chasing someone for an update or wondering where our freight is. Their team stays ahead of issues and communicates before we ever have to ask.

Communication

Freight problems happen. What impressed us about Forefront was how they handled them. Instead of giving us excuses, their team came to us with solutions and kept working until the issue was resolved.

How we save you money

Lower Freight Cost Starts With How a Load Is Run

No gimmicks and no teaser rates. These are the four things we do on every shipment that keep your total landed cost down.

  1. A deep carrier bench

    More qualified carriers competing for your lane means sharper rates and real backup capacity when the market tightens.

  2. The right mode, not just a truck

    Truckload, LTL, intermodal, power only or drayage. We compare the options that fit your freight and quote the one that costs less to get it there on time.

  3. Pricing from real lane history

    Our brokers price from what your lanes have actually moved for and current market conditions, so you are not paying for guesswork.

  4. Fewer surprise charges

    Detention, layover and truck-order-not-used fees add up. Tight appointments and active tracking stop most of them before they start.

Stronger Than Ever

Forefront Global Logistics moves road, LTL, drayage, intermodal, ocean and air freight, and manages the supply chain around it, cutting cost and adding visibility at every handoff.

Forefront OS

Software Watches the Freight. People Own It.

We built our own operating system, with AI, on top of our TMS. It keeps every load, carrier and invoice in view, and puts the right person on a problem before it reaches you. You still get a named broker who answers the phone.

  • Load data refreshed every 15 minutes from our TMS, so the team works from what is happening now.
  • Carrier insurance and do-not-use flags checked daily before your freight is tendered.
  • Day and overnight track and trace shifts following freight through the night.
  • Delivered loads escalated if not invoiced at 3 and 6 days, so your billing stays clean and on time.
