The Challenge: Global Ambitions, Local Limitations

 

Transmodal Group had the vision and expertise to operate as a worldwide NVOCC. But their previous software partner was holding them back. Despite coordinating multi-modal freight across continents—from the US to India—they were trapped in a cycle of inefficiency. Every shipment tracking task consumed 15-20 extra minutes. Their profit and loss visibility was murky. And their global team struggled to stay synchronized across time zones.

 

"ROI isn't just monetary. If a solution saves time, money, and energy, it's invaluable. GoFreight checks all these boxes."

— Kanav Bhalla, Owner of Transmodal Group

 

 

Operational Inefficiencies

Despite their global outreach, the Transmodal team grappled with cumbersome shipment tracking, dedicating invaluable time to tasks that should have been instantaneous.

 

 

Software Hindrances

Their previous software partner introduced inefficiencies, especially in profit and loss tracking, compelling them to expend 15-20 extra minutes per task.

 

 

Global Coordination Gaps

With teams spanning from the US to India, coordinating operations across time zones and locations was becoming increasingly complex.

 

 

Limited Visibility

Lack of real-time tracking and insightful reports made it difficult to make data-driven decisions and identify opportunities for improvement.

 

 

 

The Partnership: From Discovery to Transformation

 

When Kanav Bhalla discovered GoFreight on Capterra, he found more than just software—he found a partner committed to his success. The transition wasn't just about migrating data; it was about unlocking a new level of operational excellence. GoFreight didn't just offer features; it established an extensive network, provided real-time visibility across continents, and brought effortless coordination to a team spanning multiple time zones.

The Results: A Global NVOCC Unleashed

 

The transformation was remarkable. Transmodal Group evolved from a team fighting against their software to a globally coordinated operation moving freight seamlessly across continents. They grew from 4-5 employees to a 25-strong unit within 1.5 years—not despite their technology, but because of it. GoFreight became the backbone that supported their ambitions, proving that when you remove technological barriers, growth becomes inevitable.
