Relying on One Carrier Could Be Your Biggest Risk
By Circle Logistics | July 11, 2025
In today’s volatile logistics landscape, what feels safe and familiar can quietly become your greatest vulnerability. That’s the central warning of “The Cost of Comfort: When Loyalty Becomes Risk,” a new white paper from Circle Logistics that challenges shippers to rethink their transportation strategies before the next disruption strikes.
The Hidden Dangers of Single-Carrier Dependence
This white paper pulls back the curtain on the hidden pitfalls of relying on a single transportation provider:
- Unexpected Disruptions: Service outages, equipment failures, and regional constraints can bring your entire network to a halt.
- Rising Costs: Lack of competition often leads to rate increases that erode your margins without warning.
- Stagnant Service: When there’s no alternative, service quality can slip—and you’re left absorbing the fallout.
“The simplicity of one carrier may seem appealing, but the reality is that this approach exposes your business to costly surprises and performance gaps—often without you realizing it until it’s too late.”
Benchmark, Diversify & Partner Smartly
