About the Company

  • At Flexport, we believe global trade can move the human race forward. That’s why it’s our mission to make global commerce so easy there will be more of it. We’re shaping the future of a $10T industry with solutions powered by innovative technology and exceptional people.
  • Today, companies of all sizes—from emerging brands to Fortune 500s—use Flexport technology to move more than $19B of merchandise across 112 countries a year.
  • The recent global supply chain crisis has put Flexport center stage as we continue to play a pivotal role in how goods move around the world.
  • We are proud to have the support of the best investors in the game who believe in our mission, solutions and people.
