RXO launched Middle Mile Solutions, a new service is designed to integrate first-, middle-, and last-mile logistics into a single, comprehensive network tailored for shippers seeking efficiency and speed.
“Supply chains are often fragmented, leaving shippers to manage tedious manual processes and disconnected providers,” says Demetri Venetis, president of freight forwarding at RXO. “With Middle Mile Solutions, we’re closing the loop. We move goods in bulk from suppliers to our centralized hubs, process them, and prepare them for final fulfillment, all within one integrated tech ecosystem. This allows our customers to position their inventory within reach of the vast majority of the U.S. population without any infrastructure investment, shortening distribution time and streamlining their operations.”
Key takeaways:
· RXO’s Middle Mile Solutions bridges the gap between manufacturing facilities and final destinations.
· By leveraging RXO’s massive network of carriers and national hubs, the new service eliminates the need for multiple vendors, offering shippers a “dock-to-door” solution with a single source of control.
· Key capabilities include network optimization, value-added services, specialized delivery and reverse logistics.
· Powering this service is RXO’s proprietary tech platform, RXO Connect, which provides shippers with end-to-end visibility, offering item-level traceability from pickup to delivery.
