How should shippers collaborate with their freight forwarders?
“Shippers need to work in a partnership mode rather than a purchase mode with their freight forwarder. The main failure is that shippers are looking into transportation as a purchase service.”

Spreetail is an e-commerce company specialising in selling a wide range of products through various online platforms, including their own website as well as marketplaces like Amazon and eBay.
