Radiant Logistics is a non-asset-based third-party logistics provider that arranges freight transportation across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Radiant does not own transportation equipment; instead, Radiant acts as an intermediary, connecting commercial shippers with third-party motor carriers, airlines, ocean lines, and railroads. Radiant's core services are freight forwarding for domestic and international air and ocean shipments, and freight brokerage for truckload, less-than-truckload, and intermodal freight. Radiant also provides value-added services such as customs house brokerage, warehousing, and trade management software through its Navegate platform. Radiant operates through company-owned branches and a network of exclusive independent agents. Radiant earns revenue on the spread between the rates billed to customers and the costs paid to transportation carriers. The independent agent structure limits fixed costs, while Radiant provides centralized back-office, technological, and credit support. Radiant's strategy combines organic growth through technology with acquisitions of regional logistics businesses and buyouts of its independent agent partners.
