Vehicles moved, and inventory sourced, by people who do this every day.

Kraken Logistics arranges vehicle transport through a vetted carrier network, and sources wholesale inventory between franchise dealerships. Two sides of the same business: getting the right unit, to the right place, on schedule.

Kraken LogisticsGoshen, Kentucky
For franchise dealers

Acquire inventory when you need it.
Move it when you don’t.

Short the exact unit a customer wants, or long on something that isn’t turning? We work both sides of that — and the transport rides on the same ticket.

Source the spec

We locate new units at other franchise stores nationwide by year, model, trim, drivetrain, colour and option package, then handle the trade.

Turn aged stock

Stock that has sat on your lot for months is often in demand somewhere else. We find the store that wants it, structure the trade, and move it.

Two lines of business

Dealers use us for both.

Individuals typically use the first.

Line one

Vehicle transport brokerage

We arrange and coordinate car shipping for dealerships and individuals across the country, booking the move with vetted, licensed and insured motor carriers and managing it from dispatch through delivery.

  • Open and enclosed transport
  • Single units or full loads
  • Dealer-to-dealer, auction, and retail delivery
  • Carrier authority and insurance verified before dispatch
Line two

Wholesale dealer trades & allocation

We locate new inventory sitting at other franchise stores, negotiate the trade, and move the units. Useful when you need a specific spec you can’t order, or want to turn aged stock into something that sells on your lot.

  • Nationwide sourcing by year, model, trim and spec
  • Dealer-to-dealer trade negotiation
  • Aged inventory moved into demand markets
  • Transport handled on the same ticket
How the broker role works

Plain about who is responsible for what.

Worth being plain about, because it affects who is responsible for what.

We arrange transport

Kraken Logistics is a licensed property broker. We contract with motor carriers to move your vehicle. We do not operate our own trucks and we do not employ the drivers.

We vet the carrier

Before a unit is dispatched we confirm the carrier’s operating authority and active cargo and liability insurance. Cargo coverage on your vehicle in transit is carried by that motor carrier.

We stay on it

One point of contact from booking to delivery. If a truck runs late or something changes en route, you hear it from us rather than chasing a dispatcher.

Dealer reviews

We’re collecting reviews from the stores we trade with and move units for. Every review is posted with the dealer’s permission, as written.
