Commtrex was founded with a simple mission: Simplify freight by rail. Commtrex is the largest online platform in North America (US, Canada, and Mexico) which connects rail shippers with transloaders, terminals, class 1 and short line railroads, storage providers, lessors, and many other types of rail service providers (e.g., industrial switching, fleet management, warehousing, etc.). Within two years, we’ve been able to build an inventory of railcars in our system valued at over $900 mm, acquire >800 companies that ship by rail, 100% of class 1 railroads and 75% of shortline railroads as members of the system. Most recently, we have launched: • Commtrex Rail Insights • The first Exchange-Based Price Index for Railcar Leasing and Storage Rates • The first Top 10 List for Storage and Rail Service Providers in the US and Canada • Trending Analytics which highlights the most searched and viewed listings, postings, railcar types, and storage locations, in the marketplace, which gives our members insight on current trends across the rail industry. We were honored to be recognized as Most Promising Company at the 2018 Texas Digital Summit hosted by the Rice Alliance for Technology and Entrepreneurship and Station Houston at Jones Graduate School of Business, Rice University. We were part of the Plug and Play Supply Chain and Logistics Program's Batch 7. We are always looking for amazing people that are passionate and driven to change the world.
