In Q2 2024, Freightos continued to progress toward its long-term growth objectives. The company facilitated 316.5 thousand transactions, representing a year-over-year growth of 32%, surpassing management expectations for the quarter and exceeding the long term target of 20-30% annual transaction growth rate. This significant transaction growth highlights the growing adoption of digital solutions in the freight industry.
Gross Booking Value (GBV) for Q2 2024 grew 31% compared to the same quarter last year, consistent with the growth of Transactions. Management had anticipated that GBV growth may lag at 15-18% growth, due to softer market prices. However, due to the ongoing Red Sea crisis, average prices did not drop and so GBV growth was consistent with Transaction growth.
In Q2 2024, Freightos expanded its Carrier network to 51 carriers, up from 37 in Q2 2023. Additionally, the count of Unique Buyer Users rose to approximately 19 thousand, reflecting a 16% increase from Q2 last year.
