E-commerce’s ease and convenience for consumers will fuel its growth, with Bloomberg Intelligence forecasting it will reach $2.9 trillion in US sales by 2030, making up 34% of retail vs. 25% last year. That growth doesn’t come without challenges for shippers and their transportation partners. In this Talking Transports podcast, Chris Guggenheim, founder and CEO of ClearJet, joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation and logistics analyst, to share his insights about how the company’s technology-based platform and network of capacity partners are trying to make e-commerce logistics more nimble and cheaper for shippers. Guggenheim also talks tapping underutilized commercial-airline capacity, building out a parcel network, being a serial entrepreneur and how a job with Willie Nelson put him on the road to logistics.
