Look Back: FlockFreight Grows 400% YoY, 500k Pallets Shipped, Still Shy of $1b Valuation

We're going after something much more complicated than has ever been pursued before.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
Look Back: FlockFreight Grows 400% YoY, 500k Pallets Shipped, Still Shy of $1b Valuation

fill the truck up at a single manufacturer, send the truck down the road.

Those are the incumbent modes where there's space in between and encompassing both, which is shared truckload.

Number two is, you know, you don't hear a lot of founders say this.
