Ocean freight is a less expensive method of shipping goods, but the drawback is a longer transit time. Another benefit for ocean freight is while size and weight may be an issue for air; it is not for ocean freight. Ocean freight is used quite extensively for the movement of bulk commodities such as agri-products (wheat, maize, soya, etc.), coal, mineral ores or for wet bulk products such as crude oil and petroleum. Also, larger, odd-shaped items including engines and propellers may move via this mode as well, depending on how sensitive the delivery time is. Ocean freight is also a preferred mode of transport for the movement of high volume and heavy cargo such as minerals, metals, ores, steel coils, etc. This mode of transportation provides extensive coverage around the world and allows shippers to have access to multiple carrier options.

Key benefits of ocean freight include:

- Suitable for wide range of products with long lead times;

- Large volumes. A single, ultra-large container ship can carry +/-20,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU);

- Most environmental friendly among all modes of transport;

- Economical. Liner shipping is the most efficient mode of transport for goods;

- Extensive coverage around the world;

- Multiple carrier options for the shippers;

While air transportation is one of the most expensive modes of transportation due to the requirement of speed and cost of fuel, shipping cargo by air is critical for markets and supply chains that rely on expedited delivery services. Compared to other modes of freight shipping, air transportation requires less documentation and handling of the cargo and offers an enhanced level of security, as well as reliable arrival and departure times.

Key benefits of air freight include:

- Quick transit;

- Less handling of cargo;

- Less documentation;

- Reliable arrival and departures;

Enhanced level of security for your cargo;

Rail transportation is an environmentally friendly, fast, and cost-effective solution for shipping large volumes of freight long distances, typically over 800km; however, it is important to note that at the end of the rail transit, the cargo will often need to continue the rest of its journey via road transportation. Shipping by rail is also one of the most efficient forms of land transportation, as one train can haul the equivalent of over 400 trucks.

Key benefits of rail freight include:

- Reliable transit times and schedules;

- Railroads are the most efficient form of land transportation. One train can haul the equivalent of over 400 trucks;

- Fast and cost-effective deliveries over long distances. Typically over 500 miles;

- Traditionally, rail has a strong safety record;

- Helps in alleviating road congestion, thus lowering emissions;

As one of the most common modes of transportation, shipping freight by road makes it easy to move goods across various provinces and countries. While road freight offers several advantages over other modes of transportation—affordability, scheduled deliveries, flexible service, freight tracking, and local or over-border deliveries—truck transportation can be limited by size and weight restrictions, as well as impacted by weather, road conditions, and traffic.

Road freight provides several advantages over other modes of transportation such as:

- Cost-effectiveness;

- Quick and scheduled delivery;

- Local, over border, long or short haul deliveries even in rural areas;

- Flexible service;

- Saving in Packing Cost compared to other modes;

- Track and trace of cargo and truck;

- Complete door-to-door service and it is one of the more economical means of transport.

We consider the main quality criteria to be the minimization of clients' expenses for cargo transportation and the time spent on cargo delivery, while ensuring the safety of the cargo in transit. If you need international cargo transportation, please contact us.
