About Freightwaves

FreightWaves is a price reporting agency (PRA) focused on the global freight market and the leading provider of high-frequency data for the global supply chain. FreightWaves’ price, demand, and capacity data allow customers to benchmark, analyze, monitor, and forecast the global physical economy.

Without logistics, the supply chains that keep the global economy moving would cease to exist. Forty percent of the global economy is tied to logistics-dependent industries and there are millions of logistics firms that keep supply chains moving.

The professionals that manage these logistics networks are under constant pressure to monitor threats, manage costs, and keep supply chains liquid and predictable. Unfortunately, their operations face volatility created by changes in economic, regulatory, geo-political, and technological developments. Natural and man-made disasters can also wreak havoc on logistics operations.
