  In forming EleetsTransportation, a strategy built for growth was envisioned by creating the framework for a versatile, asset-light transportation services company built on Three Key Strategy Components: Provide Service through a multi-vertical business model, Operate under an asset light Philosophy, Be first in providing SMART solutions for customers. Strategy Multi- Smart Vertical Solutions Asset Light

  MULTI-VERTICAL By providing servicesin multiple verticals, We can say yes to just about every customer and bring added stability to the business plan, as an especially strong showing in one vertical can offset a slow start in another. This strategy also enables Eleets Transportation to leverage its multiple strengths and service capabilities. For example, a customer that needs truckload shipping might also have less-than-truckload shipments, and intermodal service may be substituted for truck service when capacity is tight in a given traffic lane. Most importantly, working in multi-verticals provides a vehicle for accelerated growth, a point made abundantly clear in Eleets Transportation‘s first year.

  ASSET LIGHT Most customersare not comfortable turning their businesses over to brokerage-only service providers, because it limits their options and potentially increases risk. We operates under an asset-light philosophy, where trucking assets comprise a strategic - but not predominant - part of the business model. The mantra is "we truck to broker." This mix of assets with brokerage enables the Eleets Transportation Logistics brand to be present at the customer's shipping dock when necessary and allows access to assets, without encumbering the company with an excessive investment in them. We believe there is more profit potential in managing assets as opposed to owning them.

  SMART SOLUTIONS While most logistics companies focus only on getting goods from one place to another, Eleets Transportation decreases "empty miles" by connecting two or more clients with empty cargo space that are heading in the same direction - a greener and more cost-effective way of moving freight. Enviromodal is Eleets’ brand-neutral, financial- and environmental-focused transportation initiative that offers another means of handling freight more efficiently. Enviromodal will yield manage rail intermodal and truck drayage assets, thereby increasing asset utilization and reducing empty miles – meaning less consumption of fossil fuels and a decrease in air pollutants. As a logistics partner in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s SmartWay Transport Partnership, the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and improving the fuel efficiency of ground freight transportation are among Eleets’ primary goals. In addition, Enviromodal clients will be able to access real-time equipment availability and billing information, reserve equipment on a round-the- clock basis, manage shipments, submit questions about charges in real-time and utilize a one-stop rail billing feature.
