7LFreight expands instant cargo pricing and booking for North American forwarders across both air and trucking

December 13, 2022

  • Leading North American rate management and quoting platform adds LTL eBookings with leading US carriers
  • Bookings complement 7LFreight and WebCargo’s existing air cargo eBooking traction
  • LTL bookings available through 7LFreight platform and via APIs for integration into transportation management systems

Oregon City, Oregon, December 13, 2022 – The global supply chain crisis of 2021 and 2022 underscored the business need for real-time and accurate freight decision-making for forwarders and customers. In order to help North American forwarders provide more competitive service, 7LFreight, a Freightos Group company, today announced the launch of real-time cargo rate management and booking of Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight within their platform. 

With this development, forwarders of all sizes can step beyond 7LFreight’s leading comprehensive rate procurement across more than 2,500 cartage agents and 100 airlines, to instant bookings across every major North American LTL carrier, including SAIA, Estes, AAA Cooper and more. In addition, 7LFreight helps forwarders extend the convenience to their customers as well, easily adding predetermined markups and allowing customers to rate and book shipments themselves in just minutes.

“7LFreight’s LTL platform has proven to be extremely beneficial to our team,” said Mike Wendorf

of Alliance Air Freight. “The LTL platform allows our customers to go in & manually quote, book, and dispatch carriers without our office’s need for any email correspondence. Prior to utilizing 7LFreight’s LTL platform it would take on average 6 emails per shipment from quote through shipment’s completion. By having our customers go online to book LTL shipments we have freed up time to focus on more productive tasks.”

The shift from static rate management and quoting to dynamic bookings extends beyond just trucking. 7LFreight already supports real-time eBooking across an industry-leading collection of major airlines including American Airlines, Emirates SkyCargo, Turkish Airlines, LATAM and others, via an integration with WebCargo.  

“We continually were asked by our customers how they could book the rates that they see within the 7LFreight platform,” said Brennan O’Dowd, the CEO of 7LFreight, a Freightos Group company. “Creating booking capabilities for the LTL carriers is a paradigm shift that allows customers to be able to both instantly price and book shipments without ever leaving 7LFreight.”

7LFreight is used by over 10,000 forwarding professionals through a friendly user interface and accessible API. North America has been one of the fastest growing markets for digital eBookings with over a 5x YoY eBooking growth in the region. Forwarders can request a demo for 7LFreight’s freight rate management and booking tool at 7LFreight.com/ltl

About 7LFreight, a Freightos Group Company

7LFreight is a highly effective freight rate management, pricing and booking tool for North American forwarders. With its uncompromising commitment to providing world-class customer service, 7LFreight is used by over 1,250 offices worldwide with over 10,000 transportation professionals relying on 7LFreight as their primary source of rate information. Since its acquisition by the Freightos Group in early 2022 and subsequent integration with WebCargo, air cargo eBookings have been made possible across dozens of airlines, including leaders like American Airlines, Emirates SkyCargo, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airways, and many more. More information is available at 7LFreight.com

7LFreight joins WebCargo as a leading platform for live air cargo rate distribution and bookings between hundreds of airlines and 3,500+ forwarders across over 10,000 forwarding offices. Freight forwarders can access dynamic capacity, pricing, and eBooking by signing up for free at webcargo.co.

The Freightos Group also operates freightos.com, the world’s largest digital freight platform for the trillion-dollar international shipping industry, and the Freightos Baltic Index, the only daily container index, in collaboration with the Baltic Exchange. 

Founded by serial entrepreneur Zvi Schreiber, Freightos is a logistics technology pioneer with a worldwide presence, and has raised over $120 million from leading venture funds, including GE Ventures, Aleph and the Singapore Exchange. In June 2022, Freightos announced that it would merge with GESHER I (Nasdaq: GIAC)  with the intent of going public on the Nasdaq (CRGO).
