A freight forwarder is a company or individual that plays a crucial role in the logistics and supply chain industry by facilitating the transportation and movement of goods from one location to another, often across international borders.
Freight forwarders act as intermediaries between shippers and carriers, helping to streamline the shipping process and manage the complexities of international trade.
Freight forwarders secure cargo space with various transportation providers, including shipping lines, airlines, trucking companies, and rail operators, based on the needs of their clients.
Freight forwarders handle the necessary documentation and paperwork associated with international shipping, including bills of lading, customs declarations, export/import permits, and certificates of origin.
We offer or arrange cargo insurance to protect against potential loss or damage to goods during transit.
Freight forwarders often provide real-time tracking of shipments, enabling clients to monitor the progress of their goods.
They assist in identifying and mitigating risks, such as adverse weather conditions, customs delays, or other potential issues that could affect the shipment.
Feel free to discuss with our team if you have any questions on both domestic and international shipping.
