Case Study: Leading National Plastics Distributor achieves full supply chain visibility and cost savings with FreightPOP

How FreightPOP delivers control and visibility over supply chains with internal processes and proven ROI right out the gate

Leading National Plastics Distributor, a major U.S. plastics distributor that scaled rapidly during the COVID-19 PPE surge, needed full multimodal visibility and true rate-shopping capabilities (parcel vs. LTL) beyond their outbound-LTL‑only TMS. Seeking to view 100 lb small pack and LTL side‑by‑side and to break down spend by branch, vendor and product, they selected FreightPOP's cloud TMS to replace their limited provider and centralize inbound and outbound freight across parcel, LTL, TL, ocean and air.

FreightPOP implemented a one‑platform TMS with rapid, company‑wide rollout, integrations (including the customer’s load board), drill‑down reporting, and automated PO alerts to improve internal communication and tracking. The result: full supply‑chain visibility, better control of inbound rates using the customer’s negotiated carriers, fewer interdepartmental calls, daily use across U.S. locations, and immediate savings — including thousands of dollars cut from TMS costs — delivered by FreightPOP.
