Solvr, A Kodis Company

What Solvr, A Kodis Company does

SOLVR, A Kodis Company, is a privately held niche logistics provider headquartered at 1138 Prospect Avenue East in Cleveland, Ohio, operating as a subsidiary of KODIS Holdings — a diversified holding company described as a thoughtfully curated collection of niche logistics brands that also includes Empire Freight Logistics, Standard Freight Logistics, KODIS Transportation, and SDS Logistics. The company specializes in managed storage, distribution, and transportation services targeted at four verticals: Electronics Distribution, Commercial Construction, Digital Infrastructure, and HVAC — segments it explicitly serves because of complex multi-vendor supply chains and specialized handling requirements for oversized or heavy goods.

Its core product set consists of SOLVR Logistics Services (managed transportation and warehouse network access), SOLVR Warehousing (on-demand, short-term storage without long-term leases), the SOLVR Warehouse Management System (a cloud-based WMS with real-time inventory visibility, barcoding and RFID tracking, and automated workflows), and SOLVR Analytics (AI-powered reporting, predictive logistics modeling, and supply chain optimization). The platform integrates with customer ERP, transportation management, and order management systems via APIs, and incorporates IoT cargo monitoring and GPS route planning. SOLVR offers a self-service client portal alongside dedicated sales contacts.

The business model is sales-led and quote-based, with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers. Revenue is generated through transaction fees on managed transportation and specialized freight (full truckload, partial truckload, LTL, intermodal, international, last mile, project cargo, heavy equipment, and renewable energy), usage-based fees on on-demand warehousing, and professional services fees for logistics consulting. The single-invoice, single-contact engagement model targets enterprise and mid-market customers with multi-vendor supply chains seeking flexibility over traditional long-term warehousing commitments.
