The market said it plainly: carriers are the only players who can guarantee capacity.
When you work with an asset-based provider like ITF Group, you're not at the mercy of a broker's carrier network. You have a partner who owns the relationship with the equipment and the driver from day one. That's the difference right now.

One distribution center. Two-day ground to 80% of the country.

St. Louis sits at the center of the http://U.S. freight network for a reason. If you're running a national distribution strategy from the coasts, you're adding zones and costs you don't need to.

Cargo theft numbers were down slightly in early 2026, but there's a catch: the way thieves operate has changed, and it's harder to detect than ever.

The fastest-growing tactic right now is called a deceptive pickup scheme. Instead of breaking into a truck or warehouse, criminals show up with fake carrier credentials, forged documents, and stolen identities. They look exactly like a legitimate driver picking up a load. They get the freight. They disappear. And by the time anyone realizes something is wrong, the shipment is long gone.

This is why who you ship with matters just as much as where your freight is going. At ITF Group, every carrier in our network goes through a thorough vetting process before they ever touch a load. It's not a trend we're reacting to. It's the standard we've built our business around. If you have questions about how we protect your freight, we'd love to talk.

A major Supreme Court ruling last week shifted the legal ground under every freight broker in the country. In Montgomery v. Caribe Transport II, the Court ruled unanimously that brokers can be held liable for negligent carrier hiring. That means if a broker puts a carrier with a poor safety record on your freight and something goes wrong, the broker can now be sued alongside the carrier.

The immediate impact is already visible. A case against Echo Global Logistics that had been dismissed on federal preemption grounds was sent back to the lower court within days of the ruling. Plaintiff attorneys are actively developing strategies to pursue brokers in this new legal environment.

For shippers, the question is straightforward: who is making carrier selection decisions on your freight, and what does their vetting process actually look like? ITF's asset-based model means we own that decision directly. No broker layer, no gap in accountability.

71% of companies have accelerated AI adoption. Only 20% can actually make real-time decisions.

Wanting it and being ready for it are two very different things.
The gap between reactive and proactive logistics is almost always data and what you can do with it.

At ITF Group, analytics is how we run daily operations. Not a dashboard we pull up quarterly.
