Blume Global

Blume Global operates as a supply chain technology company headquartered in Pleasanton, California, with a focus on multimodal visibility and logistics execution. The firm's platform integrates with carriers and enterprise resource planning systems to provide real-time shipment tracking, appointment scheduling, and analytics. Its client base spans retail, manufacturing, and third-party logistics sectors across North America and Europe. The company's strategy centers on building a unified data layer for global supply chains, handling ocean, air, and ground transportation. Specific deployments include integration with major ocean carriers for container tracking and with parcel carriers for last-mile visibility. The platform supports direct integration with over 1,000 carriers and freight forwarders, according to the firm's public statements. Geographically, Blume's operations cover North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific trade lanes. Blume Global was formed through the 2017 merger of Blume Inc., a supply chain software firm, and the logistics visibility business of GT Nexus. The combined entity has raised equity financing from Marlin Equity Partners, a Los Angeles-based private equity firm. No additional offices, professionals count, or philanthropic vehicles are disclosed in public records. A structural differentiator is Blume's position as both a software provider and a logistics execution platform — it not only tracks shipments but also manages carrier booking, document exchange, and payment settlement. This places the firm in competition with legacy logistics software vendors while also serving as an integration layer between shippers and their carrier networks.
