XPO Inc. is a leading transportation provider whose core business is asset-based less-than-truckload freight shipping across North America, alongside freight operations in Europe. Tracing its origins to 1989 and reshaped into an LTL-centered carrier following a 2011 leadership buyout and subsequent corporate spin-offs, the company maintains one of the largest freight networks in North America. Currently, XPO is focused on expanding its terminal footprint and dock capacity, insourcing third-party linehaul to improve operating margins, and deploying proprietary network optimization technology and automated pricing tools.
