Winston Score History

The full picture

Radiant Logistics is a freight brokerage and third-party logistics company. It helps businesses move goods by connecting shippers with trucking companies, airlines, and ocean carriers — without owning the trucks or planes itself. The company serves mid-sized businesses across industries like retail, manufacturing, and healthcare in North America.

Radiant makes money by charging shippers more than it pays carriers, keeping the difference as its gross margin. It operates primarily in the United States and Canada, with a network of independent agent offices that run under the Radiant brand. The company has grown largely through acquisitions of smaller freight brokerages, which gives it scale but also means it competes in a fragmented, low-margin industry against much larger rivals like C.H. Robinson and Echo Global Logistics. The main risk is that freight markets are cyclical — when shipping demand drops, margins compress quickly, and Radiant's thin operating margin leaves little room for error.
