New Financial Year, New Freight Strategy: 5 Logistics Moves to Set You Up for Success

The new financial year is more than just a line in your accounting system — it’s an opportunity to reset your logistics strategy with purpose. After all, your freight network isn’t “set and forget.” What worked last year might not get you where you need to go in FY25.

Whether you’ve grown, downsized, diversified, or hit a few bumps in the road, your freight approach needs to reflect your current business reality — not just historical habits.

Here are 5 logistics moves every forward-thinking business should consider in the new financial year:

1. Recalibrate Freight to Business Goals

If your growth strategy for FY25 involves new markets, products, or delivery models, your freight network needs to support that — not slow it down. Start the year by ensuring your shipping modes, carrier mix, and fulfilment footprint are aligned with your ambitions.

2. Review and Renegotiate Your Freight Agreements

Carrier terms, pricing structures, and service levels should be reviewed annually. Locking in last year’s rates might sound safe — but what if there’s a better structure available? At Clique, we often uncover cost-saving opportunities or service upgrades simply by reviewing what’s already in place.

3. Learn from the Data

Use last year’s freight trends as a compass. Where were your delays, cost spikes, or customer complaints? Which routes were most reliable? What peak periods stretched your capacity? A smart FY25 plan is built on real operational insights, not guesswork.

4. Build Flexibility Into the System

Logistics is volatile — and agility matters more than ever. Can your current setup flex if demand surges, a port is congested, or you need to pivot sourcing? If not, it’s time to introduce contingency options and capacity buffers.

5. Bake in Accountability and Transparency

If you’re chasing down carriers, checking spreadsheets for delays, or doing follow-ups for follow-ups… that’s not a scalable system. Look for logistics partners who own the outcome, offer clear SLAs, and provide proactive communication. (Yes — like us.)
