TRANSPORT SOLUTION SERVICES
A freight forwarder is an individual or company that dispatches shipments via asset based carriers and books or otherwise arranges space for those shipments. Common carrier types could include waterborne vessels, airplanes, trucks or railroads.
Freight forwarders typically arrange cargo movement to an international destination. Also referred to as international freight forwarders, they have the expertise that allows them to prepare and process the documentation and perform related activities pertaining to international shipments. Much of this information is now processed in a paperless environment.

Marine Insurance
In
the process of transporting goods, at times cargo could be delayed,
lost in transit, stolen or damaged.
Shippers often question the need to purchase additional cargo
insurance! It is always suggested to cover
Insurance especially on international shipments to reduce your
exposure to financial loss. If you are an exporter who has not
been paid for the goods at the time of shipment, or an
importer who has paid for all or part of the goods before
receiving them, you must be aware that you run the risk of
suffering a financial loss if the goods are lost or damaged
during transit.
You may also be required to post a bond - at times unlimited
in time and value - and/or a cash deposit in order to release
your cargo following a declaration of general average by the
carrier even though there is no loss or damage to your goods.
With specific cargo insurance, your insurance company will
take over the responsibility and pursue the release of your
cargo.
Often your terms of sale bind you to provide cargo insurance
to protect the buyer's interest or their bank's interest. This
is especially true when selling goods CIP or CIF. Failure to
do so will not only subject you to financial loss if there is
loss or damage to the goods, but since this establishes
non-compliance with the terms of your sale with the buyer,
this can lead to legal issue and loss of sales.
Shippers assume that their goods are covered are fully by the
carriers or buyers insurance and hence they are covered - This
is not always the case.
Carrier's liability is always limited and often it is a time
consuming process to prove fault.
This is costly in terms of time and money and also legal fees.
Buyers insurance may not always be sufficient and often does
not cover all risks.
Specific insurance coverage can also cover customs duties and
taxes.

experience and competitive rates through the use of
