Cargo Revenue Management & Dynamic Pricing for Freight Forwarders & 3PLs — North America

Why freight forwarders & 3pls in North America choose Belli for revenue management

For Freight Forwarders & 3PLs in North America, revenue management is where margins are won and lost on every departure. Static pricing is leaving money on the table on every flight. Belli brings dynamic pricing to air cargo — adjusting rates in real time based on demand, capacity, seasonality, and competitive positioning. North American air cargo is dominated by the US ACAS/ACMS security regime and sophisticated customs requirements.

Operators routing through Toronto (YYZ) — carriers in the class of CargoJet, ABX Air — face the same pressure: more volume, tighter slots, and zero tolerance for a load plan that leaves revenue on the ramp. Belli's revenue management targets a measurable outcome — 10 day monthly close — and goes live in 10 days for teams operating in North America, not 12–18 months.

The operational reality in North America

Here is what actually breaks for freight forwarders & 3pls in North America.

• Manual eAWB and house manifest creation duplicated in every carrier system — compounded in North America by canada PACT pre-load targeting requirements
• Booking air cargo across airlines through fragmented portals and email — compounded in North America by USMCA trade agreement customs facilitation
• Buy/sell rate management and margin tracking spread across spreadsheets

What changes with Belli

What freight forwarders & 3pls get instead:

• Direct EDI/API connections to carriers — zero re-keying
• Automated eAWB and HAWB creation with IATA ONE Record transmission
• One booking workflow across every airline and GSA partner
