What are Freight Forwarder Services?
Freight forwarders coordinate international shipments across ocean, air, ground, and customs. They consolidate cargo, book space with carriers, prepare customs documentation, and act as the shipper's agent at every step from origin factory to destination warehouse. They're essential for any shipper moving goods across borders without an in-house international logistics team.
