As March rolls in, we’re beyond looking back at the past, instead, it’s important to assess where the market is now, and where it’s going. On our latest InTek Freight & Logistics: The Podcast, co-host Kevin asks InTek CEO (and co-host) Rick LaGore 5 questions about the state of the freight market for the next 9 months of 2023 regarding pricing, volume, capacity and more, and how inflation, gas prices, the pandemic and more factor in.
Then, we move into a discussion of freight and logistics news headlines, with more on inflation and supply chains, a Girl Scout cookie shortage and infrastructure spending in Georgia to support freight volume.
