The whole case study, including how GIC uses ShipperGuide TMS to always select the best mode for every shipment, is linked in the comments! ??

The March Freight & Economic Indicators Report is out! Here are some highlights: ??

The market is expected to remain inflationary YoY for the entire year. ?? Incremental price gains of ~7% YoY are forecast in most months (this is slightly lower than in 2024 when price gains were ~10% YoY). ?? Macro data from early 2025 suggest that demand may be losing momentum. ?? Continued reductions in active carriers may sustain the inflationary market (in YoY terms).
