Description: CHRW CH Robinson Worldwide

C.H. Robinson Worldwide (CHRW) is one of the largest third-party logistics providers in North America, operating as an asset-light freight broker that connects shippers with carriers rather than owning significant transportation equipment itself. The company runs two reporting segments - North American Surface Transportation and Global Forwarding - and offers a broad service portfolio that includes truckload and less-than-truckload (LTL) brokerage, intermodal (combined truck and rail), non-vessel operating common carrier (NVOCC) ocean services, air freight forwarding, indirect air carrier door-to-door services, customs brokerage, and fee-based managed warehousing and supply chain consulting.

Beyond traditional freight services, CHRW operates the Robinson Fresh trade name, which sources, markets, and distributes fresh fruits, vegetables, and other value-added perishables to grocery retailers, restaurants, and produce wholesalers - a niche that complements its cold-chain logistics capabilities.

Founded in 1905 and headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, the company is listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker CHRW (GICS Sub-Industry: Air Freight & Logistics) and has been publicly traded since its 1997 IPO. Its broker-driven model means revenue is largely generated from the spread between contracted shipper rates and carrier costs, making freight market pricing volatility a key driver of margins.
