Global Freight Brokerage Market to Grow at a CAGR of 5.90% During 2026-2035, Driven by the Growing Volumes of International and National Trade

Freight brokerage is an intermediary between the shipper and the carrier. With the help of a network of regional, national, and international carrier companies, freight brokers providing the required truck and trailer capacity by the shipper. Further, freight brokers also help with arranging pickup, providing in-transit updates, facilitating recovery options, along with working alongside consignees to ensure deliveries. Freight brokers are also sought by shippers as they support the later in managing costs and optimising the procedures throughout the supply chain.

A key selling point of freight brokerage is the advantage of convenience that comes from partnering with these transport industry experts that have a pre-vetted network of carriers. Freight brokerage monitors the transportation market which is subject to price volatility due to large supply and demand fluctuations. Prices for shipment can alter due to changes in seasons. When a certain product is coming into season, the demand for the number of trucks to be equipped to transport that product increases. Freight brokerages can help in avoiding price hikes prevailing in ‘hot zones’- places where the demand is very high.

To minimise freight re-handling, increase cost savings, drive better efficiency and customer service, and expedite deliveries, freight brokerage providers are strategically insourcing third-party linehaul carrier miles. In October 2023, XPO, Inc. (NYSE: XPO) introduced in-house, over-the-road operation to improve linehaul network efficiency. Under the Road Flex Operation, the company is recruiting teams of long-haul drivers to run between XPO facilities in trucks equipped with sleeping quarters along with other amenities. This operation is already underway in Dallas, Texas and Phoenix, Arizona bases, and XPO anticipates further expansion in selected group of additional service centres in 2024.
