Join Mandi Kerr and Chris Kinsel on Tuesday morning’s episode of Moving ^HEMP Forward.
Chris is the General Manager and Business Development Agent of US1 Logistics. He started in the freight and logistics industry in 1978. He has spent time in trucking, air freight, rail intermodal, and freight brokerage. In his job at US1, he works with a nationwide network of agents all of whom are experts in trucking or freight brokerage. Their capacity in the freight brokerage space is where he believes they are a potential fit in the Hemp world.
For this morning, we’ll talk about:
- What is freight brokerage, how does it work, and how might it fit for Hemp.
- Some comment about to current shortage of 80,000 truck drivers in the industry.
- How US1 works with their trucker network and their customers to compensate for that shortage.
- Their business model of agents rather than company-owned facilities and trucks.
- His initial networking experiences with the hemp folks
