“Flexport is one of those rare companies that will not merely satisfy its market, but grow it. There will be more international trade because of Flexport, and international trade is a very big thing for there to be more of.”
- Paul Graham

Flexport is a licensed freight forwarder that uses people and software to manage the complexity of international trade.
We move hundreds of tons of air freight and thousands of containers of ocean freight every month. We also provide all the coordinating functions like customs clearances, drayage, trucking, warehousing, and fulfillment required to move goods.

We help high-growth companies move products around the world. Shipping something from Shenzhen to Cincinnati or Rotterdam to LA requires complex coordination. Currently that’s done by telephones, spreadsheets, and fax machines. Flexport provides a web-based app that offers real-time visibility of your shipments.

You have the chance to help make it run with software and on the Internet.
