Using a freight forwarder to handle your import or export shipment might not be as costly as you think.<\/p>\n
Firstly, freight forwarders have good contacts with various hauliers and shipping lines.\u00a0 Freight forwarders understand their industry, and their suppliers.\u00a0 Shopping around for the best price is standard practice here at Mercator Cargo, we obtain the best price for our customers.\u00a0 Using a freight forwarder can have this advantage, if you consider a potential shipment, where would you start?\u00a0 Would you ring around lots of suppliers to get the best price?\u00a0 Would you know which supplier offers which route or service?\u00a0 Mercator Cargo knows, and that\u2019s why we are able to shop around for the most competitive price for you.<\/p>\n
Would you know to ask suppliers if prices they gave you included this service, or that service?\u00a0 A freight forwarder can help you in this aspect, the price given will be the price paid.\u00a0 If you know your costs upfront, you can then work on your profit margins; how much do you need to sell this for to make a decent profit taking into account your shipping costs?<\/p>\n
Finally, utilising a freight forwarder can prevent mistakes, thus saving money.\u00a0 For example, if a document is not in the right place at the right time, your shipment may have to be held on quay, or in storage, which can be costly.\u00a0 Putting your freight into trusting hands can alleviate this possibility of further costs incurred due to delays.<\/p>\n
