More Than Just
A Middleman
We founded Makalu Freight on a simple premise: The logistics industry doesn't need more brokers; it needs better partners.
In a market saturated with transactional "churn and burn" brokerages, we stand apart. We believe that every pallet moved is a promise kept. Our approach is rooted in transparency, proactive communication, and a relentless commitment to protecting your brand's reputation.
What Sets Us Apart
We bring a fresh perspective to an age-old industry.
Woman Owned & Led
As a certified woman-owned business, we bring a diverse perspective to supply chain management. We prioritize detailed communication, empathy in problem-solving, and building relationships that go deeper than the transaction.
Unmatched Safety Vetting
We don't trust your freight to just anyone. Our carrier compliance team strictly vets every partner against 50+ safety and performance checkpoints. If they don't meet our standards, they don't move your load.
Concierge Service
Say goodbye to call centers and robot voices. You get a dedicated account team that knows your business, your lanes, and your preferences inside and out. We are available 24/7/365.
Decades of Experience
Our leadership team brings over 50 years of combined logistics experience. We have navigated market cycles, capacity crunches, and global disruptions. We know how to keep your supply chain moving.
Core Values
The principles that guide every shipment, every negotiation, and every relationship.
Uncompromising Integrity
We believe that trust is our most valuable currency. We do what we say, even when it costs us.
Radical Transparency
No black boxes. No hidden margins. We provide clear, honest visibility into your supply chain data.
Relentless Precision
Logistics is a game of details. We obsess over the minutiae so you can focus on the big picture.
