Outsourcing By Small Shippers Fueling Growth Among Brokerage Firms, Freight Forwarders

As we have seen at Supply Chain Solutions, Inc., outsourcing of transportation services by smaller shippers is fueling revenue growth for brokerage firms and forwarders, while increasing the clout of many third-party logistics firms, industry observers said.

“We believe the next decade will prove to be a golden age for [logistics companies],” said Nathan Brochmann, a senior equity research analyst at William Blair & Co. in Chicago. “The industry should take share away from asset-based carriers as shippers seek low-cost solutions and greater assistance with maximizing their supply chains.”
