Dallas, TX—April 29, 2021—Axele, LLC, a Transportation Management System (TMS) company, was named a winner of a Bronze Stevie® Award in the Tech Start-Up of the Year category in the 19th Annual American Business Awards® today. Axele was chosen for its cloud-based transportation management system with several unique capabilities often found in enterprise-level TMSs, but at an affordable price.
“Axele has earned Top Tech Start-Up of the Year by taking the advanced technologies typically in use at only the largest transportation companies in the world and making them affordable and attainable for the small to mid-sized truckload carriers who carry more than 95% of the freight in the United States,” said Ryan Camacho, Director of Strategy and Business Development. “This is a very exciting recognition for the company.”
The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.’s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small. Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning “crowned,” the awards will be virtually presented to winners during a live event on Wednesday, June 30. Tickets for the virtual event are now on sale.
More than 3,800 nominations – a record number - from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories.

We look forward to celebrating this year’s winners during our virtual ceremony on June 30.”
