AFS Logistics

AFS Logistics is a privately held freight broker headquartered in Shreveport, LA, founded in 1982. Estimated at roughly $160 million in gross brokerage revenue, AFS has built a differentiated position by combining LTL freight brokerage with freight audit and payment services — two capabilities that most freight brokers keep separate. For shippers who move significant LTL volume and struggle with carrier invoice errors, overcharges, or reconciliation, AFS offers a single provider relationship that covers both the transaction and the back-office management.

LTL is AFS's primary mode strength, with dry van FTL as an active secondary offering. The freight audit and payment capability means AFS reviews LTL invoices for billing errors, duplicate charges, and accessorial overcharges — a service that often returns 2–5% of freight spend to shippers who have not previously audited their bills systematically. Managed transportation is also an active service for shippers who want outsourced freight operations rather than transactional brokerage. AFS's Louisiana base gives it strong carrier relationships in the South Central US.

For shippers evaluating AFS, the most compelling use case is for mid-market companies with $1M+ in annual LTL spend who have not implemented freight audit and want to consolidate brokerage and invoice management with a single provider. Shippers who already have a freight audit vendor or who primarily move truckload freight will find less differentiation in AFS compared to larger or more geographically diverse LTL specialists.
