Cargo Forwarding (Focusing on Breakbulk Goods)

---

 

 

In year 2021, a weighted average of the spot freight cost on key container trade routes, was last assessed at $4,495.59/FEU -- more than 3.5 times higher than a year earlier. With container rates on some key routes currently four times higher than previous record highs, some cargo owners are seeking alternatives. This has boosted rates on smaller coaster and Handysize vessels, especially in the Asia to African Continent, with some scrap cargo owners opting to take bulkers rather than containers to reduce costs.

Benefits of breakbulk shipping:

• The ability to move oversized and overweight items that won’t fit in a container.
• Reduction in time spent on deconstruction and reconstruction so that items are ready for dispatch
• Goods can enter smaller ports that typically would be unable to accommodate larger container ships
• Goods don’t have to be combined in a container, therefore, items can be shipped separately
• Oversized, Heavy Lift and Out-of-Gauge Cargo. Equipment or goods that are tedious to break down or oversized can benefit from breakbulk shipping

Our Advantages：

• Operating average 2 x bulk carriers from China to West African Sea-ports, such like Tema, Abdijan, Lagos, Dakar, etc
• Minimum 100mt of cargo as one shipment, less amount of cargo could be accepted, which depends on the type/value of goods
• Strength Packing Method applied, such like FFS technology, ensure the integrity of goods during transportation
• So far, the main loading ports at China will be Shanghai and Tianjin, occasionally at Guangzhou, if the quantity of loading goods exceeds 10,000mt, then the cargo owner could designate any available seaport at China for loading activity
