About us
A logistics operator built around visibility
Since 2009 Global X Shipping has grown from three trucks in Rotterdam into a network of 42 hubs moving 3.4 million shipments every year.
Our story
We built the tracking we wished we had
Global X started because our founders were tired of calling carriers to ask where their freight was. Every service we sell is wired into one visibility platform — the same one our own operations teams use.
