This established full-truckload freight brokerage has served Midwest manufacturers and building-materials producers for over four decades from a base in one of the country's most active flatbed corridors. Approximately 90% of freight moves on flatbed and specialized trailers — primarily concrete, block, brick, steel, and seasonal salt— a niche commanding premium pricing over standard dry-van freight. The company operates on a relationship- driven, person-to-person service model in an industry increasingly dominated by high-volume, low-touch national brokers, generating significant word-of-mouth referrals from both customers and carriers.
The business is fully asset-light, with no owned trucks, trailers, or real estate, and holds a 40+ year-old motor carrier broker authority — a rare and difficult-to-replicate asset that reinforces regulatory credibility and factoring- company trust.
Investment Highlights
• 40+ year-old MC authority, one of the longest-tenured broker authorities in a high-turnover industry, functioning as a genuine barrier to entry.
• Entrenched top customer relationship spanning 15+ years, representing over half of revenue, on a direct- bill/ACH payment arrangement.
• ~90% flatbed and specialized-trailer mix positioned in the nation's densest flatbed freight corridor, commanding premium rates versus oversaturated van freight.
• Loyal core carrier base, many with 10+ years of tenure, driving inbound referrals atypical for the industry.
