Getting to the ‘other side’ of the pandemic. 

In recent weeks, FreightWaves has reported strong growth in freight volumes and truck transportation jobs. It’s too early, though, to conclude that the pandemic has peaked, as many states are experiencing new Covid-19 outbreaks. 

Meanwhile, some trucking companies and 3PLs are struggling to make it until the economy recovers.  Even before the pandemic, major headwinds in the industry, such as soaring insurance rates and volatile rates, triggered layoffs and bankruptcies. 

For shippers and carriers alike, the economic carnage of 2019-2020 leaves a powerful lesson behind: Tough times call not only for internal perseverance—and but also due diligence in your dealings with business partners. You don’t want to be left holding the bag when another party has money problems. 

As part of a large international food marketing company with 45+ years of experience, SeaWide Express has always focused on financial stability. We’re blessed with a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity.

Plus, we’re sticklers for maintaining our track record of mutual trust. Trust and financial strength, we believe, are prerequisites for delivering what our customers expect:  Better results and better service. 

In short, pandemic or not, you can count on our team to meet all financial and service commitments.
