Sea-freight forwarding
FCL and LCL bookings, cargo consolidation, shipping instructions and destination-agent handover. The focus is the customer’s consignment and its door-to-door movement.

The movement
behind the trade.
Two complementary capabilities connect the movement of cargo with the requirements of ships and ports. Logistics plans the supply chain from collection to delivery. Maritime supports shipping, chartering and vessel operations at sea and alongside.

LOGISTICS & MARITIME
Two areas of expertise.
One coordinated handover.
A cargo owner needs an executable delivery plan. A vessel operator needs the right voyage and port arrangements. We organise these requirements through two distinct service areas, with clear responsibilities where they meet.
Logistics manages routing, freight forwarding, inland movement and cargo delivery. Maritime focuses on shipping capacity, chartering, vessel calls and shore-side support. Customers can engage either service area independently or connect both around a specific trade.
LOGISTICS
Logistics.
From origin to destination.
For cargo owners, importers and exporters: routing, freight bookings, border interfaces, storage and final delivery.
International Freight ForwardingA cargo-owner service: coordinate freight bookings, documentation and delivery across the shipment’s transport legs.
Air freight
Urgent and consolidated cargo, routing, chargeable-weight assessment and airport-to-delivery coordination.
Inland & Multimodal TransportConnect ports, borders and inland receiving points through an appropriate transport plan.
Road freight
Domestic and cross-border movements, port collections and distribution; tanker, flatdeck, container and other equipment needs assessed per cargo.
Rail & multimodal
Combine rail line-haul with road collection, terminal transfers and last-mile delivery where infrastructure and schedules support the shipment.
Door-to-door coordination
Connect the collection point, main carriage, border interfaces and final receiving arrangements.
Customs, Warehousing & DistributionManage the interfaces between arrival, clearance, storage and onward dispatch.
Customs coordination
Import, export and transit-document preparation with the relevant clearing agents and responsible parties.
Storage & consolidation
Warehousing enquiries, consolidation, cargo staging and dispatch planning through suitable service providers.
Distribution support
Coordinate receiving windows, delivery sequencing and documentation at handover.
Project & Specialised CargoDevelop a movement plan for cargo that requires additional route, handling or equipment assessment.
Out-of-gauge & heavy cargo
Review dimensions, weight, lifting points, equipment needs and route constraints before a proposal.
Industrial & project movements
Coordinate staged shipments, site-readiness requirements and interfaces between carriers, handlers and receiving teams.
Cargo-specific handling
Assess dangerous-goods or specialised handling needs with suitably qualified providers where applicable.
LOGISTICS / RAIL & MULTIMODAL
Connect the long haul
with the final mile.
For suitable volumes and routes, rail can form the main transport leg while road connects the origin and destination. The commercial assessment includes terminal access, transloading, equipment compatibility, scheduling and the cost of each transfer.We evaluate the complete movement rather than the line-haul rate alone. A viable multimodal plan aligns all transport legs with cargo availability and the customer’s receiving window.CollectionRail & transferFinal delivery
MARITIME
