This solo episode of Everything is Logistics pulls back the curtain on CargoRex’s new Associations directory—why we built it, who it serves, and how to use it to find the right freight, logistics, and supply chain associations for your goals.

You’ll hear the product decisions behind the category (taxonomy, search, and selection criteria), the problems it solves for busy operators, and a simple workflow to turn a membership into a pipeline. Plus, how you can suggest an association, claim your listing, and what’s coming next in the CargoRex roadmap.

Key takeaways:

The problem: association info is scattered, outdated, and hard to compare.
The build: a clean index of freight/logistics associations with filters that match how pros evaluate membership.
The win: faster discovery, better fit, clearer ROI on dues and time.
How to use it: shortlist, compare perks, plan engagement, measure results.
What’s next: more categories, better search, and member playbooks.

“Membership only works if you work it. CargoRex helps you pick smarter and act faster.”

Try it: Head to CargoRex and open the Associations category to search, compare, and submit missing orgs.
