Built on Experience. Driven by Partnership.
About Us
5 RIVER BROKERAGE INC. was founded on May 14, 2013, in Stockton, California, with a clear purpose: to create a transportation partner that values relationships as much as results.
With decades of combined experience across transportation, freight brokerage, and motor carrier operations, our owners and team understand the industry from multiple perspectives. We know what shippers need to keep their supply chains moving, and we understand the real-world challenges carriers face on the road. That experience shapes how we work, how we communicate, and how we build lasting relationships.
Our Focus
Our focus is to make freight transportation more dependable, transparent, and straightforward. We connect customers with qualified carriers to move dry, fresh, chilled, and frozen freight, with an emphasis on clear communication, responsible carrier selection, and timely shipment updates.
We believe successful freight management requires more than matching a load with a truck. It takes accountability, practical industry knowledge, responsive service, and a commitment to doing what we say we will do.
Our Vision
To be a trusted transportation partner recognized for integrity, dependable service, strong relationships, and a genuine understanding of both the customer and carrier experience.
We envision an industry where businesses can ship with confidence and carriers are treated as valued partners in the supply chain.
Our Mission
Our mission is to deliver dependable freight brokerage services through experienced people, responsible carrier partnerships, smart technology, and proactive communication.
We strive to provide customers with confidence and visibility while creating fair, professional, and mutually respectful relationships with the carriers who move their freight.
A Partnership That Works for Both Sides
We believe the best transportation relationships are built when customers and carriers both matter.
For our customers
For our customers, that means responsive service, honest communication, meaningful updates, and a team that understands the importance of every shipment.
For our carriers
For our carriers, it means professional treatment, clear expectations, dependable communication, and respect for the essential role they play in delivering freight safely and efficiently.
Our drive has always been to build more than a brokerage relationship. We aim to be a shipping partner people can rely on—one that listens, communicates, solves problems, and grows through trust.
