Freight Forwarding

What is a freight forwarder?

A freight forwarding service is used by companies that are involved in international import and export. The freight forwarder typically does not transport the freight itself, but acts in the capacity of an intermediary for the client with a wide variety of transportation services.

The benefits of using freight forwarders is that when sending products across international borders, you will often find that your freight is handled by several different carriers, each with their own requirements. There is also the matter of customs, excise and legalities. Freight forwarding services take the burden of these logistical issues and using their experience and contacts are able to get the freight transported across the world with the minimum of fuss.
