In today’s competitive trucking industry, growing from a small fleet to a market leader requires more than just adding trucks — it demands clear financial visibility, automation, and a system that keeps operations running smoothly. Ray Cargo, part of the Ray Group, found that solution in Datatruck, and their journey is proof of how the right TMS can drive exponential growth.

Company Background

Ray Cargo is part of the Ray Group, which brings together several companies serving multiple segments of the trucking industry. Founded in 2017, the company provides a diverse range of services with big trucks, dry vans, box trucks, and cargo vans. In October 2022, Ray Cargo expanded further with dedicated box truck and cargo van projects, positioning itself as a flexible partner for shippers.

Today, Ray Cargo operates a fleet of more than 350 trucks, making it one of the fastest-growing carriers in the market.

Before Datatruck

Managing 50 trucks manually was nearly impossible. Spreadsheets and manual invoicing left too much room for error.

• They had to rely on five different tools just to automate basic TMS functionalities — adding complexity instead of solving it.

• There was no real-time way to track truck availability.

• Financial reports were full of human variables and mistakes.

• Factoring invoices had to be created and checked one by one, leading to errors and delays.

Expansion was out of reach. As Ray Cargo described:

“If we added more trucks, we’d lose track of calculations and run into even more factoring issues. We needed one system, on one platform — and that’s exactly what Datatruck gave us.”

Choosing Datatruck

Ray Cargo evaluated their options but chose Datatruck because it:

• Brought structure and clarity — every department knew exactly what to do.

• Exposed weak spots and inefficiencies so they could act fast.

• Matched their unique business model, delivering solutions tailored to their pain points.

Because the team had foundational experience with tools like Asana, onboarding was smooth. Within one week, Ray Cargo was fully integrated and operating on Datatruck.

Future Outlook

Ray Cargo sees Datatruck as essential to its long-term vision:

“We’ve set ambitious goals to capture a leading share of the market. No other TMS can handle this level of volume like Datatruck. It has become — and will remain — a non-replaceable part of Ray Cargo.”

Advice to other fleets?

“I recommend Datatruck to every trucking company. No other TMS can deliver the same comfort, flexibility, and ability to handle scale.”

Looking forward, Ray Cargo’s 10-year goal is clear: to secure a leading position in the cargo van market while continuing to grow across all asset classes — with Datatruck as their backbone.
