What is Freight Forwarder?

A freight forwarder is an individual or firm that organizes the shipment of goods from one place to another. They do not own the goods themselves, but they act as a middleman between the shipper and the carrier. Freight forwarders typically offer several services, including:

Booking transport via vessel, truck, or aircraft
Negotiation of shipment rates
Shipment consolidation and deconsolidation
Necessary documentation (bill of lading, commercial invoice, and others)
Expertise of import and export regulations
Acquiring Protection Insurance

A qualified freight forwarding service can often be recommended through a trusted customs broker. Many work closely with one another to help mutual clients have the best shipping experience possible.
