2. Transport intermediaries and organizers
Transport intermediaries act as the interface between a freight holder and a carrier, to help match freight supply and demand and/or optimize the quality of the transport chain, and guarantee the successful delivery of goods.
The organization of international or multimodal transport in particular generally requires the use of intermediaries.
They play the role of transport auxiliaries, as service providers offering complementary or specialized solutions to actual transport operations.
More than 81,000 employees are employed in France by less than 5,000 companies whose main activity is chartering and organizing transport.
