> Are you exporting in large quantities? Perhaps you should look into utilising the expertise of a freight forwarder.  Exporting cargo by sea freight is the most popular and cost effective way of transporting your goods to overseas markets. However, a dose of extra planning is required to ensure your export schedule is secure. This means locking in space with your shipping line at least three to four weeks from your scheduled ship date. A little forward planning and a reliable freight forwarder can go a long way in helping to ensure your cargo reaches your customers in time.
