MODE Global Expands Supply Chain and Logistics Capabilities with Acquisition of Jillamy's Freight Brokerage Division
MODE Global, a top-tier third-party logistics (3PL) firm, has officially acquired the freight brokerage division of Jillamy, further cementing its position as a leader in supply chain and logistics services.

This acquisition allows MODE Global to deepen its service offerings and expand its reach across North America.
Strengthening Industry Presence and Capabilities

This acquisition represents a significant step forward in our growth strategy and aligns perfectly with MODE’s strategic vision to expand our footprint, ensuring we remain at the forefront of the logistics industry.”
Integration of Talent and Resources
As part of the acquisition, MODE Global will incorporate more than 200 Jillamy employees and expand its facilities in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Florida, Texas, Illinois, South Carolina, Maryland, and Ontario.
