Freight Operating Companies

Freight Operating Companies (FOCs) are businesses responsible for transporting goods via rail. They own and operate trains, manage routes, and coordinate logistics to move cargo efficiently across regions or countries. Think of them as specialized freight carriers within the rail industry, ensuring products like raw materials, manufactured goods, or commodities reach their destinations safely and on time. FOCs work with industries, governments, and other transportation providers to facilitate international and domestic trade, maintaining the infrastructure and operations needed to keep supply chains running smoothly.
