Cody Koehler is back to give us his overview of the current challenges and trends within the produce freight market! Cody highlights the potential impacts of tariffs and external factors, such as the housing market and interest rates, on freight cycles while emphasizing the importance of maintaining strong customer and carrier relationships through persistent business development efforts and focusing on monitoring weather conditions, tracking request-for-proposal cycles, and refining contingency strategies to ensure resilience against unexpected disruptions in the market!   About Cody Koehler Cody is a 21-year veteran in supply chain/logistics.
