I’m very pleased to share that next month, CTS will be launching our new Trade Newsletters. Over the past six months, our team has been working incredibly hard to develop a product that goes beyond simply presenting the numbers. We wanted to give our customers a clearer and more focused way to understand the trade lanes that matter most to their business. By bringing together CTS’s trusted carrier-based volume and freight rate data, interactive dashboards and market commentary, Trade Newsletters help build the story behind the data, showing not just how much a trade has moved, but providing greater context around why it may be moving. It’s an exciting development for CTS and one that I’m looking forward to sharing with our customers and the wider industry.
