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."

Despite their global outreach, the Transmodal team grappled with cumbersome shipment tracking, dedicating invaluable time to tasks that should have been instantaneous.
Their previous software partner introduced inefficiencies, especially in profit and loss tracking, compelling them to expend 15-20 extra minutes per task.
With teams spanning from the US to India, coordinating operations across time zones and locations was becoming increasingly complex.
