Managing Risks at Every Step

Air Cargo Journey

When shipping cargo by air, the journey involves several critical steps:

1. The cargo is manufactured, packaged, and dispatched from the warehouse.
2. It is then transported to the airline terminal.
3. After being placed onboard the aircraft, the cargo travels via air.
4. Upon arrival, it is offloaded and placed inside the airfreight terminal.
5. Finally, it is collected from the terminal and delivered to the receiver.

Ensuring Security for Less than a Container Load (LCL)

For sea freight, the process becomes even more complex, especially for Less than a Container Load (LCL):

1. The cargo is manufactured, packaged, and dispatched from the warehouse.
2. It is transported to the freight forwarder’s premises.
3. The cargo is consolidated with other shipments inside a shipping container.
4. The container is then transported by sea.
5. Once it reaches the destination, the container is offloaded from the vessel.
6. It is taken to the freight forwarder’s unpack depot.
7. Here, the cargo is unpacked and separated.
8. A transport company collects the LCL cargo.
9. Finally, it is delivered to the receiver.

Full Container Load (FCL)

Similarly, for Full Container Load (FCL) shipments:

1. The cargo is manufactured and packed inside a full shipping container.
2. The FCL is transported to the seaport.
3. It is then placed onboard the vessel.
4. The container travels by sea to its destination.
5. Upon arrival, it is offloaded from the vessel.
6. The FCL is collected from the wharf, delivered directly to its destination, or taken to an unpack location.
7. The cargo is then received.
