The long-term partner for independent customs brokers and freight forwarders.
What you built, with more behind it.
We acquire independent brokerages and forwarders and give them the capital, technology we build ourselves, and reach to grow further than any independent firm can on its own, without replacing the people who run them.
Capital to grow
Hire the next person before you're drowning, add services, open new lanes, and go after the accounts that have been out of reach.
Our own technology, built in-house
One system from quote to invoice, built by our own engineers for firms like yours, rolled out at your pace.
Your people, your relationships
The team and customer relationships that built the business stay at the center of it.
Our approach
Two ways to work with us.
We acquire independent customs brokerages and freight forwarders and keep them running. You decide whether to stay. Some owners come to us ready to step away. Others want to keep building with more behind them. We work with both, and the deal is built around what you want, not a template.
Your name can stay on the door. Your people, your customers, your filer code, your bond: we don't rip and replace any of it on day one.
Ready to step away?
A price that reflects what you built, a handover on your schedule, and a buyer who will still be here in ten years looking after the people and customers you built the business with.
Want to keep building?
Take money off the table, keep running your business with real capital and technology behind it, and own a piece of the much larger company we're building together.
Your people stay, and move up.
Better technology, bigger accounts, and more services to offer mean more interesting work and more room to grow for the team you built.
Your customers get more.
Same brokers and same relationships, now with more capability, more coverage, and more services behind them.
Who we are
Entrepreneurs and operators. Not private equity.
We're building the leading customs brokerage and forwarding firm in the country: the place the best people in the industry want to work, and the broker importers don't leave. Technology is how we get there. People are what make it last.
We've built, grown, and sold companies ourselves, including in logistics, so we know what it takes to run one and what it means to hand one over. We're not buying firms to sell them again in a few years. We're building one company for the long haul, and we plan to be working alongside the owners who join us for years, not passing their business to the next buyer.
Our technology
One system for the whole business. Ours, built by us.
We don't sell technology. Our engineers build it for the brokerages and forwarders that join BorderLogic, one system from the first quote to the final invoice. It handles the repetitive work so your people can do what only people can do, and we roll it out alongside how your team works today, at your pace.
Win more business.
Every quote followed up. Customers hear from you before there's a problem, with the next service they need. New importers found and contacted for you, so your brokers stay on the desk and still get a pipeline.
End to end, not piecemeal.
Quoting, filing, tracking, billing, and collections in one connected system. No more point solutions that don't talk to each other and each take a bite out of your margin.
Our own ABI connection.
Our own ABI connection to CBP, so your filings don't depend on a third-party vendor's fees, outages, or roadmap.
For importers
Pay only the duty you owe. Know it before the invoice lands.
Duties and tariffs are now one of the largest costs on an importer's P&L, and the one that changes most often. Our brokers have been clearing entries for decades. You get an experienced licensed broker who knows your products and your account, backed by technology that catches problems before they cost you money.
Freight that clears.
Entries filed right the first time, documents in order before arrival, and holds worked the same day, so your cargo doesn't sit at the port running up storage.
Classification you can defend.
The right HTS number, applied the same way every time and documented, so you pay what you owe and have the file ready when CBP asks why.
Tariff changes, explained before they hit.
When rates or rules shift, we tell you what it means for your products, your landed cost, and your bond before your next shipment, not after.
A broker who knows your account.
One named person who knows your products and picks up the phone. Not a ticket queue, and not a different voice every call.
Let's talk
Curious what we're doing, weighing your options, or just want to compare notes on where the industry is headed? Leave your name and the best way to reach you, and one of the founders will get back to you directly. Every conversation is confidential. Nobody at your firm or in the industry hears about it from us.
