About FreightPros (WWEX brand)
FreightPros is an Austin, TX-based freight broker founded in 2009 as an online-first LTL and FTL brokerage targeting small and mid-sized businesses. The company was acquired by GlobalTranz — now part of WWEX Group (Worldwide Express Operations LLC) — and continues to operate as a legacy brand within that larger organization. WWEX Group is the #7 freight broker in North America with over $4 billion in gross revenue; FreightPros functions as an SMB-focused digital entry point within that broader network.
FreightPros was early to the online LTL quoting model — its core offering is a self-serve web platform where shippers can get LTL rates, book loads, and track shipments without speaking to a broker agent. This approach resonated with small businesses that found traditional broker relationships too high-touch for the volumes they were moving. The platform accesses LTL carrier rates through the WWEX Group network, which includes relationships with 75+ LTL carriers through the Worldwide Express and GlobalTranz brands.
Shippers evaluating FreightPros should understand its position within the WWEX Group structure. As a subsidiary brand, FreightPros does not operate as an independent company — its carrier network, technology infrastructure, and financial backing flow from WWEX Group. This is generally a positive for reliability, but shippers should be aware that the brand may be phased into or consolidated with the broader WWEX platform over time. For SMBs needing simple online LTL quoting with national carrier access, FreightPros remains a functional and accessible option.
