Freight Forwarding Software

Run air, sea and land shipments from quotation to invoice — with documents, tracking and the profit on every job in one place.

  • 8connected modules
  • 8+standard reports
  • 1system, linked to accounts

A forwarding job touches sales, operations, documentation and accounts. When each team keeps its own file, costs are missed, invoices go out late and nobody knows the real margin until month end.

MacroEdge Freight Forwarding software builds everything around the job file: the quotation that won it, the documents and milestones that move it, and the costs and revenue that decide whether it made money.

Built for

  • Freight forwarders
  • NVOCCs and consolidators
  • Customs clearing agents
  • Logistics companies
