With an increased focus on business continuity in the post-pandemic era, supply chain risk management strategies include a diversification of logistics solutions to reduce over-reliance on a single transportation mode. Using one or two modes of transportation for your freight is the right choice if you ship large amounts of goods, ship long distances, and want to reduce costs. By loading your freight on an intermodal container your shipment can move seamlessly from truck to train and cargo ship, and vice versa.
Whether you’re a large, small, or medium sized business looking to secure capacity with the major railroads you may not be getting the best value. As a top Intermodal Marketing Company (IMC), we take that burden away from you and provide value-added logistics services under a single Door-to-Door freight bill.
The benefit of using an IMC like Swift Eagle is that we have the critical mass to design an end-to-end solution through our network of partners including ocean, rail, and over-the-road. Leveraging a supply chain enabler like Swift Eagle for your domestic or international moves helps you gain a competitive advantage, build a resilient supply chain, and access additional outside capacity when you need it. Another benefit is that we can control the first and final mile of your freight, the most critical parts of your shipment.
Our Intermodal team of experienced railroaders with unique insights into how railroads operate will work with you to develop the type of end-to-end solution that you expect from supply chain experts: cost-effective, fuel-efficient, and environmentally responsible
