We’re excited to announce that Loadsmart has been recognized as a 2024 Top Food Chain Provider by Food Chain Digest, the official magazine of the Food Shippers of America (FSA)!
The program highlights third-party logistics companies (3PLs), freight brokers, motor carriers, rail/intermodal, and maritime companies (ocean carriers and port authorities) that excel in capabilities and service to food shippers. This program then helps food shippers become more aware of providers recognized for their quality service and capabilities. This list is limited to only 25 providers, in accordance with direction by the FSA Board of Directors—so we’re among the elite service providers within our industry!
Loadsmart partners with food shippers on dynamic rate programs to provide reliable and cost-effective transportation solutions. By auto-tendering loads using API rates, we guarantee capacity in a tight market and offer real-time rates for cost savings. For example, Loadsmart’s Reliable Contract solution provided our customer, Red Gold, 100% tender acceptance regardless of market conditions, complete rate transparency so the shipper could see the real underlying cost of each shipment and most importantly aligned the right incentives and behaviors by only rewarding Loadsmart with greater margins when we provided more competitive pricing.
“Receiving this award from such a widely-respected organization is an honor and true testament to the entire Loadsmart team’s continuous commitment to innovation & best-in-class service. In an industry in which timely delivery, product safety/integrity, & sustainability are paramount, this recognition further validates Loadsmart's ability to execute as one of the top providers in the space while continuing to empower businesses to move more with less.”

Vice President, Enterprise Account Management at Loadsmart
