Stop paying freight broker margins.
IHFB helps shippers insource transportation, eliminate broker dependency, and keep margin in-house.
Built by operators who’ve managed complex freight programs
A proven system to replace brokers, not renegotiate them
Typical shippers uncover 8–20% in recoverable transportation spend
The longer you outsource transportation strategy, the harder it becomes to take it back.
The Freight Broker Model Is Designed to Keep You Dependent
Freight brokers position themselves as “experts,” but the reality is simple:
They control the data.
They control the carriers.
They control the narrative.
And you pay for it every load.
IHFB Was Built to Replace Brokers - Not Optimize Them
IHFB is a shipper-first consulting platform created by industry operators who’ve worked inside freight brokerages and alongside shippers.
We don’t sell freight.
We don’t earn commissions.
We don’t take carrier kickbacks.
Our only objective is to help shippers own their transportation function - permanently.

This Is Not for Everyone - And That’s the Point
IHFB works best for shippers who want ownership, not outsourcing.
This IS for You If:
You spend $1M–$50M annually on transportation
You rely heavily on freight brokers and want out
You’re tired of “market explanations” with no transparency
You want your team to own rates, carriers, and data
You’re willing to invest in building internal capability
This Is NOT for You If:
You want someone else to “handle freight for you”
You’re shopping purely on spot rates with no discipline
You expect instant savings without process change
You believe brokers are a necessary evil
Built by Operators Who’ve Lived on Both Sides
IHFB was created by logistics operators who have worked inside freight brokerages, managed enterprise transportation programs, and owned assets themselves.
We know how brokers think - because we’ve been there.
