# Freight Aggregator Platform

> A marketplace that matches shippers to freight forwarders by route, rate and service, from parcel to full container.

- **Client:** A Singapore startup
- **Industry:** Freight marketplace
- **Stack:** Angular, PrimeNG, Spring Boot, MySQL, Apache POI, AWS EC2

## The problem

A Singapore-based startup wanted to bring freight forwarders, their routes, rates and services onto one platform, so a customer could describe a shipment and be matched with a suitable forwarder.

## What we built

- **Shipment wizard:** Packages, weights and dimensions, then a forwarder, pick-up and drop-off, and payment.
- **Container calculation:** Works out how many containers a large shipment needs.
- **Forwarder matching:** Suggests forwarders that serve the requested origin and destination.
- **Forwarder onboarding:** Forwarders sign up and upload routes and rates from Excel, parsed straight into the platform.
- **Invoices on the fly:** Generated per booking, with online or cash payment.

## How it's built

Angular with PrimeNG, Spring Boot on Apache Tomcat, MySQL, Apache POI for Excel processing, deployed on AWS EC2.

## Results

- The complete platform was built and demonstrated. The startup did not secure funding, so it was not launched commercially.
