"Satish - Great article. Here’s what I sent to all of my people.

Echo Team, Happy New Year to all! There has been a lot of discussion this past year about the new so-called digital freight brokers and how they might possibly “disrupt” the freight brokerage market. I have attached a good article by an industry pundit published in JOC last week that makes good reading for all."
