Freightbase adds ‘quick quote app’

Logistics database Freightabase has launched the ‘Quick Quote’ functionality of its website as a standalone app.
The ‘Quick Quote’ section of the website allows cargo owners and freight forwarders to quickly obtain quotations.
The team behind the site, launched in September, wanted to give users “even greater accessibility to obtain quotations from specialist carriers” through the app, compatible with both iOS and Android.
Freightabase managing director Craig Headford said: “We are in the process of building the ultimate freight buying platform that will revolutionise the industry. Imagine taking the best parts of social media, comparison sites, news, and marketing, combined: this is what we are creating.”
The company said it would continue to invest in digital marketing and technology, this includes further digital projects for early 2019, including individual apps for the site’s advertisers, and a news app to give Freightabase clients the ability to send press releases and details of new service offerings.
