In an industry where “Where’s my freight?” remains one of the most common questions shippers ask, Amazon Freight has turned transparency into a defining characteristic. That commitment hasn’t gone unnoticed. Earlier this year, project44 named Amazon Freight as a 2026 Preferred Carrier Award winner, placing us among the top 2% of carriers in their network.
“This recognition validates our continued investment in visibility technology and our dedication to providing customers with accessible and accurate shipment data,” said Ari Silkey, General Manager of Amazon Freight. “In today’s complex supply chain, visibility isn’t just a nice-to-have. It’s essential.”
Building visibility into the foundation
project44, a global leader in supply chain visibility solutions, evaluates carriers of all sizes, from independent owner-operators to multinational enterprises. Their Preferred Carrier designation recognizes transportation providers who consistently deliver exceptional supply chain visibility, giving shippers the data they need to make informed decisions.
The gold-level recognition reflects Amazon Freight’s commitment to transparency and reliability. For shippers evaluating transportation providers, project44’s Preferred Carrier list serves as a valuable benchmark.
What this means for shippers
The recognition reflects years of investment in the technology and processes that make visibility possible. From smart trailers that provide location data to integration capabilities that connect with shipper systems, Amazon Freight has built visibility into every aspect of our service. It confirms that our commitment to transparency meets the standards set by one of the industry’s leading visibility technology providers.
More importantly, it reflects the experience shippers have when working with Amazon Freight: consistent, reliable visibility that helps them manage their freight more effectively and serve their customers better.
As supply chains continue to evolve and customer expectations for transparency increase, visibility will only become more critical. Amazon Freight’s recognition as a project44 Preferred Carrier demonstrates our readiness to meet those expectations, today and in the future.
