FreightWaves, a leading provider of freight industry benchmarking, analytics, and forecasting will sponsor the Wall Street Journal Logistics Report, a digital news product and daily newsletter, that delivers up-to-the minute news, analysis, interviews and explanatory journalism on everything from global trade and transportation infrastructure, transport routes and the software algorithms that guide them, to the flow of raw materials through manufacturing processes and delivery of the finished product.
FreightWaves will also supplement the WSJ’s news coverage with custom sponsored content that includes data-driven research items from SONAR as well as pieces that illuminate the relationships between freight movements and the broader economy. The FreightWaves content is uniquely produced for the The Wall Street Journal Logistics Report, entirely by FreightWaves. The Wall Street Journal news department is not involved with the creation of any content produced by FreightWaves. The content produced by FreightWaves will be clearly labeled.
“The WSJ Logistics Report offers best-in-class journalism and reporting on global events that impact logistics and supply chains to one of the broadest news audiences in the world,” said Craig Fuller, FreightWaves founder and CEO. We are honored and excited to work with one of the most respected news sources in the world. FreightWaves will provide the WSJ Logistics Report community with sponsored content that includes near real-time benchmarking, analysis and forecasting driven off the FreightWaves SONAR platform.”
