Winston Score History

The full picture

XPO is a trucking and freight company based in the United States. It specializes in less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping, which means it combines packages from many different customers into one truck instead of giving each customer their own truck. Its main customers are retailers, manufacturers, and e-commerce companies that need to move goods across the country.

XPO makes money by charging businesses to pick up, sort, and deliver freight through its network of over 600 service centers across North America. After selling off several other divisions in recent years, XPO is now focused almost entirely on its LTL business, which gives it a simpler but more concentrated operation. Its large network of terminals and trucks is expensive to copy, which creates a barrier for new competitors, but the business is sensitive to economic slowdowns because companies ship less freight when the economy weakens.
