About Us
Almost every single thing that you eat, wear, or use is imported or exported. Freight quite literally moves the world. And we’re helping it move even better.
Freightos (Nasdaq: CRGO) is the global rate management, booking and payment platform for the trillion-dollar freight industry. Hundreds of airlines, trucking companies, ocean liners, and thousands of importers and exporters use our platform to move goods around the world faster and more efficiently. This matters. Efficient freight ultimately makes things cost a little bit less when you buy them in the store.
As the leading global freight booking platform for a massive industry, we’ve been crushing it with double-digit growth, year after year, supporting well over one million shipments every year.
