The logistics industry is in a state of flux. With rising tariffs, growing security concerns and unexpected global disruptions, it’s time for traditional supply chain models to be revamped. That’s precisely where ITF Group makes all the difference.

As an asset-based 3PL provider, it uses a dedicated fleet equipped with dual-GPS tracking systems and integrated technology platforms to deliver reliable, full-service logistics. Its transportation, warehousing, global forwarding and fulfillment services are supported by a transportation management system (TMS) that offers clients live shipment visibility and instant proof-of-deliveries (POD). This enables ITF Group to take a proactive, value-driven approach that aligns every logistics move with the client’s cost-efficiency goals and service expectations.

“The solutions we provide to our clients and how we support their business are all focused on optimizing and reducing their transportation costs while helping improve their quality of service,” says Sam Burkhan, CEO.

Client-First Logistics Excellence

With a fleet of over 400 trucks and nearly 2,000 trailers, ITF Group brings more than capacity; it brings commitment. It operates as a true strategic partner, focused on long-term value over transactional service. In a market shaped by constant change, its client-first mindset provides a practical framework that drives every solution.

What truly sets ITF Group apart is the dedication of its people. For each client account, the company assigns a dedicated team of managers who handle the tracking, tracing and on-time delivery performance. In addition, the ability to provide equipment solutions such as drop trailers and real-time visibility to the equipment enables it to pre-plan all of the shipments three to four days in advance for its clients.

This approach, shaped by ongoing client requirements, enables ITF Group to address the core challenges businesses face every day. Two key concerns are tariffs and rising cargo theft. With shifting trade policies, companies struggle to predict shipping costs, while security breaches threaten supply chains. ITF Group mitigates these risks head-on, understanding each client’s exposure and supporting their business through targeted actions, adaptable planning and a deep understanding of individual pain points.

End-to-End Solutions That Optimize Performance

ITF Group’s portfolio spans transportation, warehousing, distribution and fulfillment. What makes these services stand out is how they’re integrated through technology—offering visibility and enhanced control.

To address cost uncertainties and cargo theft, the company leverages its TMS and dual GPS units to ensure every shipment is secure, traceable and that the operations team can respond instantly if any incident occurs. Clients can access ITF Group’s portal to view equipment within their facilities and retrieve all PODs directly from the TMS. This streamlined access saves significant time and eliminates the need for back-and-forth email communications.

Building on this visibility and control, the onboarding process is deliberate and rigorous. After verifying each client and conducting credit evaluations, ITF Group’s operations team connects either through a conference call or an on-site visit. These conversations help the team understand the client’s specific pain point. Some clients face sourcing issues while others struggle with missed deliveries or unreliable fulfillment. ITF Group collects detailed data, reviews total logistics spend and develops step-by-step solutions that improve pickup and delivery while cutting costs.

This hands-on, client-focused approach extends to all facets of ITF Group. Its growing presence in the St. Louis area enables it to offer clients a cost-effective alternative to overpriced and inefficient warehousing facilities in the Midwest. By stepping in as a strategic partner, ITF Group has helped several clients significantly reduce storage expenses through its warehousing solutions. This commitment to tailored logistics strategies is evident in its partnerships as well.

Driving Long-Term Client Success

A case in point is a long-standing apparel retail client—a major U.S. brand—that has partnered with ITF Group for the past eight years. It has become the brand’s primary transportation partner by establishing trailer pools at origin and destination facilities. Leveraging instant equipment visibility and a seamless customer portal, the client significantly improved operational flow and on-time delivery by 40 percent. ITF Group also implemented drop trailer strategies during peak seasons, helping the client reduce costs and improve delivery efficiency. Behind this success is a synergy of people, process and platform, with expert teams driving execution through proactive planning.

ITF Group’s edge lies in its expert personnel, pre-planning and visibility. Combined with asset-based strength and flexible warehousing, these capabilities ensure faster response, greater efficiency and uninterrupted supply chain performance.
