There is no best freighter nor jumpfreighter, as they are all a bit different.

The Caldari Charon and Rhea are the largest in both categories, but the slowest, and the Rhea is the least fuel efficient but still very popular. The Caldari have the worst T1 Industrials, though their T2 versions do a good job of making up for that.

The Minmatar Fenrir and Nomad are the smallest in both categories, but the fastest, and the Nomad is the most fuel efficient. The Mammoth is the largest Industrial at level 4, and they also have the only Blockade Runner with two high slots, though it is also the only BR that can't haul a packaged cruiser hull.

The Gallente Obelisk and Anshar are the most popular, simply because the Gallente Industrial 5 prerequisite is also required for the Iteron V, the largest Industrial at level 5. Oxygen Isotopes have been the target of two large-scale interdictions to date, making the Anshar rather expensive to operate.

The Amarr Providence and Ark, are a bit smaller cargo and a bit faster than the Gallente offerings, but not (yet) subject to isotope interdiction and the least expensive to fuel (last I checked). The rest of the Amarr industrial line is quite good too, making Amarr a good choice when there are no other overriding requirements. Standouts are the Bestower, largest Industrial from level 1 to 3, and the Prorator, the most flexible Blockade runner.

Of course though, you should be looking at the want-ads to see what the market needs.

[For what it is worth, I have 6 Caldari Industrial pilots, and two Amarr.]
