Freight Brokerage
One sack of flour for a dozen eggs . . . Gone are the days of such no-frills, local trade. In their place: a sophisticated global commerce system requiring a thorough knowledge of land, sea, air and rail shipping rates and regulations. Knowledgeable freight brokers are indispensable to this burgeoning scene.
A Freight Broker is skilled in matching goods needing to be transported with the transporters. They are the middle man between the guy with the goods and the guy with the vehicle that can get those goods where they need to go. This is an in demand vocation because products are always needing to be moved from one place to another. A Freight Broker can work anywhere they have access to a phone, fax, and a computer with internet.
