The freight forwarder has often been referred to as the
"architect of transport". MERIDIAN WORLDWIDE's job is
to design a customized shipping program that meets the needs
of the exporter or importer. Using the vast resources at our
disposal, we will find the right match of services available
so products are moved by the most cost-effective and
efficient means. Among the services we provide are:
- Professional consultation with exporters and importers
to advise them on the best ways to ship, pack and documents
their sales.
- Detailed quotations for shipping and packing costs.
- Arrange for collections of goods, storage,
pick-and-pack operations, consolidations or full-container
movements.
- Determine the best shipping mode and route to
destination.
- Select and make a booking with the most suitable steam
line or airline.
- Negotiate the most favorable freight charges with the
carrier.
- Prepare and distribute all export, import and
collection documents.
- Track the cargo and keep the exporter or importer
advised on the status of the shipment.
- Arrange for Cargo Insurance
Finally, remember that selecting a forwarder strictly on
cost often leads to a false economy. MERIDIAN WORLDWIDE
consistently offer competitive rate levels.
