Freight forwarding involves coordinating the transportation of goods between a sender and a recipient. A freight forwarder arranges for cargo to be loaded, transported, unloaded and delivered while ensuring it gets to its final destination on time and in good condition. Freight forwarders provide services like customs clearance, warehousing and transport arrangement through subcontractors. They consolidate smaller individual shipments into full container loads for efficient cargo transport but do not own the means of transportation themselves.
