Overview
Forager was founded on the idea that complicated freight is something to be mastered instead of feared. And with this goal in mind, we've built a team that says yes, when everyone else says no. Led by founder and Chief Executive Officer, Matt Silver, Forager is quickly building a reputation as the leading cross-border freight brokerage in North America.
