Client success

Chosen by 2,400+ Ops Teams Worldwide.

  • James Holloway, Head of LogisticsJames HollowayHead of Logistics

    “Zero missed windows in 30 shipments.”

    We moved our Asia-to-Europe air programme to Fretrix after a competitor stranded us mid-shipment during a product launch. The customs pre-clearance alone saved us 11 hours per lane.

    “100% GDP cold chain compliance.”

    Our biologics need continuous monitoring from origin lab to destination cold-room. Fretrix's air cold chain handled 48 lanes last quarter with zero temperature deviations recorded.

  • Shipar John, Director of OperationsShipar JohnDirector of Operations

    “Strict GDP cold chain. No exceptions.”

    Every lane is audited end to end, and the exception desk calls us before we notice a problem ourselves. That is the difference between a carrier and a partner.

  • John Abraham, Director of OperationsJohn AbrahamDirector of Operations

    “One control tower, four modes.”

    Air, ocean, road and rail all report into the same dashboard. Our planners stopped reconciling spreadsheets and started managing exceptions instead.
