Freight Technologies Inc. (FRGT) Reports Record Capacity Levels from Fr8Fleet
05 September 2023 - 12:30PM
Freight Technologies, Inc.
(Nasdaq: FRGT)
(“Fr8Tech''), a technology company offering its custom-developed
Fr8App, an industry-leading freight-matching platform that offers a
B2B cloud-based solution for cross-border and domestic shipping
within the USMCA region, reports a record number of active carriers
in its Fr8Fleet brand at end of August 2023, an increase of 60.8%
versus year-ago levels and an increase of 55.7% versus YTD average
capacity levels through August.
"Following a challenging first quarter of the year, we had to
cycle through some underperforming carriers during Q1-23 – which
hurt our numbers for the first quarter, but we believe we did the
right thing to maintain the expected high level of quality of our
service, and we are getting back on track,” said Luisa Lopez, COO
for Fr8Tech. “The additional carrier capacity is something we are
actively working to address – not only during the first quarter but
for a number of months to come. An important limitation to our
ability to grow the Fr8Fleet brand has been related to securing
high-quality carrier capacity, and we have focused on doing just
that for some time, and our efforts are starting to bear
fruit. We expect to be able to show improvements in recurring
monthly revenue from Fr8Fleet through the remainder of the calendar
year and into 2024.”
Lopez continued: “In the Mexico domestic market, we have
confirmations of existing shipper clients for our Fr8Fleet business
to continue growing through the balance of 2023. We have been
tirelessly working on getting these key large shipper clients on
our platform, and we are pleased to announce the corresponding
increase in carrier activity on our platform. We need both
sides of the platform to make a marketplace, and we continue
working toward creating critical mass on both the demand and supply
sides of our platform. Our capacity for this segment is up year
over year and we have had steady monthly increases since February
2023 which will start showing up in our results for both this
upcoming third quarter and the ones to follow.”
