NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hudson Capital Inc. (NASDAQ: HUSN) (Hudson Capital) has entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire FreightHub, Inc. (Fr8Hub), a North American transportation logistics platform company focused on US-Mexico cross-border shipping. Existing Fr8Hub shareholders intend to invest $12 million in connection with the closing of the transaction. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2021.

Fr8Hub is simplifying domestic and international cross-border shipping through its cloud-based transportation logistics platform. The company's digital freight marketplace, transportation management systems (TMS), public application programming interface (API), and customer support tools have been designed to maximize efficiency from scheduling to delivery for shippers and carriers. Fr8Hub's innovative digital freight matching technology connects shippers with a broad network of reliable carriers and drivers in Mexico, Canada and the United States' borders. The company's proprietary platform enables shippers to autonomously manage their own fleet and post loads in the marketplace to minimize dead space and, at the same time, seamlessly integrate with third-party systems to streamline communication amongst partners. Altogether, Fr8Hub's mission is to make shipping simple, transparent, and efficient.

Hon Man Yun, Chief Financial Officer of Hudson Capital, stated, "With its differentiated technology platform, first mover advantage and extensive management experience and expertise, Fr8Hub is well positioned to capitalize on the expanding truckload freight industry cross-border between the United States and Mexico. After three years of innovative software development, the company began selling Fr8Hub 2.0 in earnest in June. Since that time, they have seen extraordinary month-over-month revenue growth."
