Freight forwarding and logistics platform · San Francisco, California, United States

Flexport

A San Francisco-based global logistics operator and platform coordinating freight, customs, and fulfillment.

About Flexport

From its San Francisco headquarters, Flexport connects manufacturers, carriers, customs brokers, and companies selling across multiple markets. It combines freight operations with a digital platform for booking, tracking, and managing shipments. The company presents the system as a place for logistics teams to review movement, orders, and inventory instead of coordinating each leg through disconnected tools.

Services span ocean, air, and ground freight, along with customs brokerage and order fulfillment. For e-commerce businesses, the work can extend from a factory departure through storage and delivery; importers and exporters can use the platform to follow shipment milestones and related documents. Flexport also offers analytics and AI-assisted tools designed to flag exceptions and organize responses, though availability depends on the cargo, country, and specific operation.

The physical network matters as much as the software. Flexport operates offices and warehouses internationally and publishes locations in commercial centers across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Its website describes operational coverage in more than 135 countries and lets businesses request a quote, contact a specialist, or review the network. The company’s headquarters is on California Street in San Francisco’s Financial District.

The company is geared toward businesses that move freight regularly or need to connect transportation, customs, and distribution. It is not an occasional parcel service; Flexport works with commercial shipments and supply chains. Before engaging the company, businesses can define which stages to outsource, which systems need to connect, and what transit and clearance terms apply to each shipment.
