Radiant Logistics

Radiant Logistics

Radiant Logistics was founded in October 2005 with a plan to acquire and partner with logistics entrepreneurs, offering them a public-company currency and succession planning. The firm is publicly traded on the NYSE American under the ticker RLGT and operates as a non-asset-based global transportation and supply chain management company. The company builds its network by acquiring best-of-breed shipping providers and letting their owners retain equity in the combined business. Its service mix covers air, ocean, and ground freight, specialized white-glove retail delivery, and heavy equipment transport. Radiant's technology includes shipment-tracking tools designed to give customers real-time visibility. The firm serves industries ranging from retail to industrial manufacturing and has more than 100 operating locations worldwide. Radiant has not publicly disclosed total AUM or deployment figures. The firm employs Todd Macomber as CFO, Arnie Goldstein as CCO, and JP Deenihan as VP of Marketing. In 2024, Radiant released its inaugural Sustainability Report, covering ESG metrics and greenhouse gas emission reduction goals (per the firm, 2024). The company also holds a Native American-owned Minority Business Enterprise certification through its affiliate Radiant Logistics Partners. Radiant's structural differentiator is its public-company platform for independent logistics agents: owners of acquired stations become equity partners, gaining liquidity and a succession path that independent operators otherwise lack. This acquisition-and-incentive model is unusual in the fragmented freight forwarding industry, where most competitors remain privately held.
