Consolidation consists of grouping purchase orders from different suppliers in a warehouse/warehouse in order to minimize operational tasks and access more competitive international freight rates by consolidating cargo and increasing cargo weight and/or volume.

In this modality you can choose to send a container with all your merchandise or in the case of not completing it, you can fill it with merchandise from other importers.

So: Should I consolidate my import?

If your case is:
– Import from 2 or more different suppliers
– My purchase orders by supplier do not fill a container

We propose…

1- Stop wasting money on too many small shipments.
2- Stop wasting time checking a lot of documentation.
3- Stop wasting time on operational tasks that do not allow you to dedicate more time to making more sales.
