Our story

The Company

Three decades of growth, told by its milestones.

1992

Born in Miami

Interworld Freight is founded the year of Hurricane Andrew and is soon nominated to handle the cargo of a major California-based consumer electronics company to Brazil.

1999

WCA founding member

Founding member of the World Cargo Alliance; in 1999 and 2000 we hosted its meetings in our Miami offices. Today the WCA is the largest global alliance of independent freight forwarders.

2000s

Expansion across the Americas

Operations expand to Colombia, Guatemala, Chile and the Dominican Republic, driven by cargo owners and fellow global agents alike.

2020

Panama, through the pandemic

We opened our Panama branch in the face of the global pandemic: the newest addition to a network that keeps growing.

Today

Leading the southbound lane

The largest American-owned NVOCC by containers and tonnage on the southbound trade lane, and the sole offerer of scheduled weekly air and sea consolidations to many key Latin American markets.

Growing verticals

Chemicals, building materials, telecom and more: the verticals where we keep expanding market share.

Our purpose

Changing lives and generations

The fundamental purpose of Interworld Freight is to change lives and generations: supporting foundations focused on Christian education and food for the most vulnerable, putting our people first, and leaving a legacy for future generations to continue helping.

Our corporate values are the foundations that support us, and our faith is the engine that drives us to prevail.
