## About

WWEX Group is a private freight broker and 3PL formed in 2021 through the merger of Worldwide Express and GlobalTranz — two established mid-market freight brokers — and later incorporating Unishippers, a franchise-based LTL and parcel broker network. Based in Dallas, TX, the combined entity operates under multiple go-to-market brands (Worldwide Express, GlobalTranz, Unishippers, and others) but shares a consolidated technology platform (SpeedShip) and centralized operations. With $4.38 billion in gross revenue and 70 million+ annual shipments, WWEX Group ranks among the top seven freight brokers in North America.

WWEX Group's most distinctive capability is its breadth across freight modes and customer segments. Worldwide Express pioneered the franchise model for LTL and parcel brokerage, giving the group 130,000+ active shipper customers — many of them SMBs that use the Unishippers franchise network for simplified access to LTL pricing. GlobalTranz, the larger revenue contributor, serves enterprise shippers with FTL, LTL, intermodal, and managed transportation through a technology-first TMS platform. Together, the brands cover virtually every mode and shipper size.

For shippers evaluating WWEX Group, the key consideration is which brand and contact model best matches their freight profile. Unishippers and Worldwide Express are strong choices for SMBs needing simplified LTL and parcel management. GlobalTranz serves mid-to-large shippers needing FTL, intermodal, and managed transportation with API/TMS integration. Cross-border Mexico service is available through WWEX's Monterrey office, and ocean and air freight are supported through the combined network.
