Some of the biggest and best known businesses started off small, selling goods locally then import and export international freight forwardingbranching out into the unknown, increasing their international sales territories and building a loyal and satisfied customer base through exceptional fulfilment.

Yet there’s a certain point that most business owners seem to reach when it comes to international freight forwarding – the point where it becomes too much, too complicated to handle alone.

Can I handle my freight forwarding on my own?

Of course, some small companies try to manage their international fulfilment on their own, but freight forwarding is a complex business, with many different pitfalls that need to be avoided.

This is where the warehousing and distribution industry comes to the rescue with expert knowledge of freight forwarding, shipping internationallyand expanding your business across the world.

So how exactly can a warehouse specialising in freight forwarding help me?

Good question. Successful freight forwarding requires someone who knows what they’re talking about, and a warehouse specialising in international freight forwarding, such as DMG Freight Services, can act as the middle man between your business and your export destination.

They’ll be able to help deal with the big things, like contacting sea, air and land freight companies and negotiating deals, to the small, like advising you on the best packing materials for your products to protect them on their long journey.

Combining expert freight forwarding knowledge with typical warehouse services, they’ll even be able to store your goods until they need to be shipped out, preparing and transporting them to the right sea or air ports.

Having a partner who knows all about the ins and outs of freight forwarding can also help when negotiating business deals abroad, as those companies buying your products will feel more at ease if they know they’re dealing with an experienced provider that has a collection of tried and tested industry contacts.

It’s the same situation when it comes to goods passing through customs without incident – different countries have different legal restrictions, and your specialist freight forwarding warehouse can inform you on a country’s particulars, as well as providing assistance should cargo become stuck in customs limbo.
