As the General Manager of Amazon Freight, Ari Silkey oversees the Amazon Freight business that leverages the Amazon network and technology to enable external businesses to tap into them. We sat down with him to get his thoughts on his vision for the organization.
After a year of ups and downs, it at least looks like the economy is ending on a high note. Early indications show that online holiday shopping beat expectations. At Amazon Freight, we’re focusing on our customers and their freight needs.
