About Beemac Logistics
Beemac Logistics is an Ambridge, Pennsylvania-based freight broker founded in 1984 and ranked #46 on Transport Topics' 2026 Top 100 Freight Brokerage Firms with $476 million in gross revenue and $58 million in net revenue. The company is North America's largest industrial-focused freight network, specializing in flatbed and heavy-haul shipments for steel, construction, energy, manufacturing, automotive, and retail shippers. Beemac is 100% employee-owned through an ESOP.
Beemac Logistics operates as the brokerage division of the broader Beemac organization, which also includes Beemac Trucking (the asset-based carrier sister entity). The combined network spans 40+ terminals nationwide. Per Transport Topics, flatbed/heavy haul is the primary mode; dry van, refrigerated, LTL, and expedited are active. Beemac's competitive advantage is depth of specialty equipment and carrier relationships in industrial freight verticals where general 3PLs lack capacity.
For shippers, Beemac is best suited to industrial freight programs — steel, construction materials, heavy equipment, oversized freight, and energy-related shipments — where flatbed and step-deck capacity matters more than tech-platform polish. Consumer and CPG shippers will likely find better fits with retail-focused brokers; Beemac's edge is industrial steel and construction lanes anchored by 40+ years of carrier relationships.
