Stellar Transportation Service, Lower Costs
Whether you need domestic ground service anywhere in Europe and North America or freight forwarding – foreign-to-foreign transportation anywhere on the planet – Tompkins Ventures has the decades of expertise, trusted global network and data-driven approach to match you with tailored solutions to meet and exceed your customers’ expectations.
Like many supply chain topics, transportation and freight forwarding have been impacted by shooting wars, trading wars, globalization/deglobalization, climate change, industry turmoil, inflation, labor, etc. The shock waves of COVID have not dissipated, and the typical CFO is troubled by the inability of logistics folks to control their transportation costs. An ongoing major battlefield demanding digitization, innovation and new thinking
Your Problem: Complexity, Capacity & Cost
Businesses face numerous hurdles in the complex world of Transportation: poorly designed networks; identifying, assessing and mitigating risks; inefficient data management and analytics; poor supply chain design and engineering; limited transportation services and capacity options; and the complexities of global logistics.
Delays and bottlenecks often yield poor service, extra costs to expedite shipments and unhappy customers who look elsewhere.
Your Solution: Diagnostics Make the Right Match
Tompkins Ventures offers a comprehensive suite of services to address Transportation challenges, provide seamless solutions and become an extension of your supply chain team. A complete Transportation Diagnostic Evaluation (TDE) determines where your costs are high, where you’re not using the right mode and where your service levels are less than desirable.
That data points the way toward the right transportation solution for your unique situation. Your enterprise gets the right fit for freight forwarding, truckload/LTL, multimode, parcel, drayage, final mile, etc.
Your Benefits: Certainty in an Uncertain World
Customized solution: Transportation services that enable the lowest total landed cost, visibility into your inventory across your supply chain, and service levels that retain and grow your customer base.
The right technology: Our Partner solutions integrate seamlessly with your operations. Data is presented in an easy-to-use, graphical format.
The right fit: Your transportation provider becomes part of your enterprise’s team, not an outside contractor, and you do not have to hire an army of expensive analysts.

Client executive reaction:
“Tompkins Ventures matched us with the perfect Partner. 30 days after we launched, we could tell a difference in costs and service levels – something that usually takes 6 to 9 months. It would take me an army to accomplish this because we use every mode: Ocean, less than truckload, full truckload, parcel, domestic, international, the whole gamut. Because it has become a partnership, not a transaction, we can easily expand distribution to South America.”
