About Metafora+

Metafora+ is a partnership network for the thinkers, the leaders, the innovators in the logistics space. Logistics is facing challenges – and when we can work together, support each other, solve problems together, we can all benefit. We are looking for partners who see the big picture and see how we can help each other to bring new, big ideas to the table for our customers and yours. Learn more at https://metafora.net/partners/

About JBF Consulting

Since 2003, we’ve been helping shippers of all sizes and across many industries select, implement and squeeze as much value as possible out of their logistics systems. We speak your language — not consultant-speak – and we get to know you. Our leadership team has over 70 years of logistics and TMS implementation experience. Because we operate in a niche — we’re not all things to all people — our team members have a very specialized skill set: logistics operations experience + transportation technology + communication and problem-solving skills + a bunch of other cool stuff.
