The trucking market is recovering, but surviving the freight recession required resilience, disciplined operations and an unwavering focus on customers. In this episode of the Talking Transports podcast, Apex Transit Solutions CEO and co-founder Marina Ivanov joins Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation and logistics analyst Lee Klaskow to discuss building a trucking company from a single truck into a nearly 100-truck fleet and freight broker. Ivanov explains how Apex weathered one of the industry’s toughest downturns by prioritizing service, investing in safety and technology and strengthening relationships with drivers and shippers. She also discusses truck parking, regulatory enforcement, women in trucking, AI-driven fleet management and why improving drivers’ quality of life is essential to building a stronger, more sustainable trucking industry.
