What ShipEX Logistics does

ShipEX Logistics is a US nationwide freight brokerage headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, operating as a Utah Limited Liability Company under MC # 240180 and USDOT # 2215156. Founded in 2010, the company functions as an intermediary property broker, arranging freight transportation through authorized motor carriers rather than operating its own fleet. It serves shippers across multiple verticals — Automotive, Pharmaceuticals, Food & Grocery, Retail, and general freight — providing Full Truckload, Less Than Truckload, Dry Van, Refrigerated, and Flatbed shipping modes alongside Long Haul, Regional, Expedited, Final Mile, and Power Only service types.

The company's core technology is a freight brokerage platform built on carrier network management, a structured four-step carrier vetting process (safety record review via CSA scores and inspection history, reputation verification, business stability confirmation, and responsiveness/visibility testing), and integration with real-time tracking systems. The platform connects shippers to a vetted carrier pool of approximately 13,000 trusted carriers and 400 core carriers. The offering is augmented by a dedicated Carrier Vetting service page and a Carrier Solutions partnership program that recruits qualified carriers with consistent loads, RFP opportunities, and load board access. The ShipEX Logistics name and logo are registered trademarks.

ShipEX generates revenue through brokerage commissions and fees on freight shipments arranged between shippers and carriers in its network, on a quote-based pay-as-you-go billing model with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers or rate cards. Its go-to-market is sales-led, relying on direct outreach via website contact forms, phone, and email, complemented by content marketing through an educational blog covering logistics topics, freight industry insights, and shipping best practices. Distribution is direct to shippers with no resellers or third-party intermediaries identified. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, subsidiaries, M&A history, or publicly appointed board.
