In this episode of the ThinkFreight Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Luis Ramirez, Account Manager of Trucking and Distribution at Greenmile Logistics. Luis and I first connected at the Texas Trucking Show in July, and I knew right away that his story was one worth sharing with the ThinkFreight audience.
With a solid background in brokerage, Luis recently made the leap into the asset-based side of the industry, focusing on drayage—a move that has opened his eyes to the stark differences between these two facets of logistics.

Luis takes us through the nuances of prospecting on the asset side versus brokerage, offering insights into how his approach has evolved with his new role at Greenmile Logistics. He reflects on his transition from brokerage to drayage, sharing the lessons he's carried over and how they’re shaping his current work.

We also dive deep into Greenmile Logistics, a key player in drayage and warehousing just outside of Port Houston. With a fleet of 30 assets, Greenmile is making significant strides in the industry, and Luis provides an inside look at their operations and the critical role they play in the supply chain.

Our conversation rounds out with a discussion on AI and its growing influence in logistics. Luis shares his thoughts on where AI fits into the industry and what he's most optimistic about as we head into the latter half of 2024.
