About airfreight forwarding
Airfreight forwarders are intermediary agents that arrange shipments for industries from the manufacturer to the final point of distribution. They are usually associated with the movement of light, expensive, and perishable cargo that needs quick transportation. Having a long-term contract with major airlines along with providing consolidation services enables airfreight forwarders to secure cheaper freight rates. They act as supply chain experts and their services range from packaging and labeling, documentation and PO management, charter services, transportation, warehousing, to value-added services. They are increasingly offering integrated solutions, facilitating end-to-end cargo delivery processes, enabling exporters to focus on their core competencies. Customized solutions are being developed for customers from various industries, and especially for the pharmaceutical, F&B, and chemicals industries.
