How can we assist you?
Full Container Load – FCL
If a container is transported from a shipper to a consignee fully loaded, this is referred to as a Full Container Load, or FCL.
We will reserve, provide, and place your container.
The container is then transported by truck, rail, barge and/or ocean-going vessel to its destination in Africa, passing through various countries and borders. Our experienced team of dedicated professionals will provide guidance and support throughout every stage of the various customs clearance processes and ensure correct planning and coordination of all aspects of the container.
Less Container Load – LCL
Less Container Load, or LCL, refers to individual freight consignments that do not fill a complete container, and are therefore grouped together in one consolidated container.
This service gives customers the possibility to save costs by booking only a part of the freight space of a container.
When using an LCL service, your goods will be collected by us and then shipped in a consolidated container with other shipments.
