What Is a Freight Agent Program?
A freight agent program lets you run your own book of business under the authority of an established Freight Broker. You bring the customer relationships. The brokerage brings the infrastructure, such as carrier access, insurance, technology, and back-office support. In return, you share the revenue from each load.
As a result, you can build a company without taking on the cost of getting your own broker authority. If you want the background, the freight broker overview on Wikipedia explains the role well. Likewise, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration sets the rules brokers operate under.
