Transfix (NFI brand)

Transfix is a New York, NY-based freight broker and digital freight marketplace founded in 2013, now operating under TF Brokerage Services LLC as a subsidiary of NFI Industries. In June 2024, Transfix, Inc. divested its brokerage operation to NFI Industries — the Vineland NJ-based logistics conglomerate — and pivoted the parent company to a pure-play SaaS focus (the Transfix.io TMS software platform continues to operate independently as a software vendor). The brokerage business and FMCSA authority now reside under TF Brokerage Services LLC, registered at 11 Park Place, New York, NY 10007. Transfix's brokerage generated approximately $400 million in gross revenue in 2024 and focuses primarily on dry van truckload, reefer, and flatbed freight in the spot market.

The Transfix-branded brokerage platform provides shippers with instant FTL quoting, real-time tracking, and API integration to connect directly with carrier networks. The original digital-first approach appealed to shippers in retail, e-commerce, and manufacturing who prefer self-service tools over account manager-mediated transactions. The brokerage does not maintain a broad LTL or intermodal portfolio — its strength is concentrated in full-truckload spot market freight across the 48 contiguous states.

For shippers evaluating Transfix today, the strongest fit is FTL dry van or reefer spot freight where digital self-service quoting and automated tracking are priorities. Following the NFI acquisition, shippers should be aware that the brokerage entity is now part of NFI Industries' broker portfolio (which also includes the long-tenured NFI Interactive Logistics LLC) — meaning the Transfix brand is one access point into a larger NFI carrier network. Shippers with complex freight — oversize, hazmat, or multi-modal needs — or those requiring dedicated managed transportation support should evaluate whether the platform's automated model provides sufficient account management depth for their volume.
