CNE Worldwide Logistics

What CNE Worldwide Logistics does

CNE Worldwide Logistics is a privately held, founder-controlled third-party logistics (3PL) provider founded in 1987 by Brian Dubow and headquartered in Coral Springs, Florida. The company operates an asset-based model combining its own fleet of trucks, refrigerated trailers, and climate-controlled warehouses with an extended carrier network for brokerage services. Its service portfolio spans six interconnected lines: Full Truckload (FTL) including specialized flatbed and oversize variants, Over-The-Road (OTR) long-haul with real-time tracking, Less Than Truckload (LTL) with White Glove options, TSA-certified Air Freight, port-to-warehouse Drayage, and Climate-Controlled Warehousing with integrated local pickup and delivery. The company holds TSA-Certified Indirect Air Carrier status and IATA membership, with a full-time security coordinator managing regulatory compliance for air freight operations.

The company's technology footprint centers on logistics management infrastructure rather than differentiated software. Real-time tracking and live dispatch provide operational visibility for shipments, while climate-controlled warehousing uses advanced temperature control systems with 24/7 monitoring for perishable inventory. Security is augmented through 2025 partnerships with CargoNet for cargo theft prevention and Highway for carrier identity verification, both positioned as technology integrations. No proprietary AI, machine learning, or data flywheel capabilities are disclosed in the available data. Operational reach spans ten locations across Florida, North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, South Carolina, Arizona, and California, supporting service across the 48 contiguous U.S. states and the Caribbean.

CNE generates revenue through transaction-fee pricing across its service lines, with all quotes customized to shipment specifications (weight, distance, freight type, service level, special handling). The go-to-market motion is sales-led, anchored by 24/7 phone support, a website quote form, and email outreach, with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers. The company serves ten identified verticals, with Food and Beverage/Produce designated as the primary segment and Floral, Beer and Wine, Fashion and Apparel, Retail, Electronics, Tradeshows, Energy and Infrastructure, and Automotive Parts as additional segments. The Dubow family controls ownership: Brian Dubow serves as Founder, President, and CEO; Jill Dubow as CFO since 1990; Ross Dubow as CMO and Director of HR. The company is entirely privately owned with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or parent company affiliation.
