CHICAGO — August 21, 2025 — FourKites®, the leader in AI-driven supply chain transformation and pioneer of the Intelligent Control Tower™, today announced its global Premier Carrier List (PCL) for the first half of 2025, recognizing carriers that have demonstrated superior tracking performance across all modes of transport globally.
The PCL identifies carriers across North America, Europe and APAC who consistently deliver exceptional visibility and service quality to their customers. These carriers reduce manual check calls, minimize dwell time, streamline carrier-shipper workflows and help shippers respond quickly to operational changes and disruptions.
“Real-time visibility has become table stakes for carriers who want to win and retain business,” said Priya Rajagopalan, President, Product, Technology and Operations at FourKites. “We’re honored to recognize these Premier Carriers who provide actionable insights that drive better decision-making across the supply chain and strengthen partnerships with their customers.”
Premier Carriers report measurable advantages from their investment in real-time visibility. Aman Tamana, President of Tamana Truck Lines, said providing visibility is fundamental to his company’s operations. “Having this status of being on the FourKites Premier Carrier List shows customers we are not just saying it, but proving it,” Tamana explained.
Steve Lyons, Executive Director of Sales & Marketing at Vine Line Logistics, noted the business impact of Premier Carrier designation. “Premier Carrier status not only validates our commitment to operational excellence, but also helps us stand out in competitive bids and attract new business opportunities,” Lyons said. “Our customers often share that the consistency of our tracking and communication gives them confidence to entrust us with their most critical freight. A trust we take seriously every day.”
The recognition extends to third-party logistics providers globally. Claus Sigmund, Key Account Manager at JCL Logistics Benelux B.V., emphasized the alignment with his company’s mission. “At JCL Logistics Benelux, we are committed to making logistics smarter, safer and more sustainable. Our inclusion in the prestigious FourKites Premier Carrier List is a testament to this ambition,” Sigmund said. “This global recognition is awarded to carriers and 3PLs who lead the way in real-time supply chain visibility, reliability and digital collaboration.”
Carriers that have maintained Premier status for two consecutive periods or longer have experienced 22% volume growth every six months on average, according to FourKites data.
