  1. On-demand cargo delivery solution: A one-stop solution to all trucking and freight problems The rise of the uber was pivotal in modern times, especially for all the businesses. It’s because it not only disrupted the taxi industry but also laid a platform in the form of an on-demand economy for other entrepreneurs to disrupt several industry verticals. Freight or trucking industry is also among those industry verticals which has undergone tremendous change due to the uberization.

  2. Top challenges associated with the cargo delivery industry Freight and cargo delivery business is tough. The number of operations that the carriers and owners have to perform is more than enough to overwhelm them. These operations include receiving new load orders, assigning it to suitable drivers, managing emergencies, ensuring deliveries on time, etc. The majority of traditional trucking business still employ phone calls to get new business. This results in slow operations and a lot of wastage of time.

  3. Empty trucks Underutilization of trucks and resources is one of the biggest challenge faced by the trucking businesses. Many times their truck moves with less amount of load and returns empty on the return. This causes much higher fuel consumption per unit load. Freight businesses can unlock new revenue opportunities if they figure out a way to fully load their trucks on their return trip. This way they can improve their overall resource utilization. However, achieving this feat is a difficult task in its own.

The business owners have to pay a massive amount of commission fees to broker and middleman for getting new business. This is because they are heavily dependent on these brokers for shipment request which results in them accepting all their demands and ultimately lowering their profit margins. These business owners can eliminate the need for these middlemen and brokers with the help of a digital marketplace in the trucking industry.

  5. Security Security is also a major concern as carriers often have no information about the precise location of their drivers and truck.
