In an era when logistics costs continue to rise — fuel prices, freight charges, and warehousing fees — many businesses need new strategies to reduce costs without sacrificing efficiency. One of the most popular services now is Consolidation or container sharing.
Consolidation refers to combining goods from multiple shippers or multiple shipments into one container to transport together, helping reduce costs per shipment and allowing more frequent export cycles. It is very suitable for SMEs that “do not yet have enough volume to fill an entire container”.
Normally, exporting goods requires either:
• Waiting for goods to fill a full container load (FCL – Full Container Load)
• Using standard LCL services
But if the volume is small or scattered across multiple small lots, Consolidation helps.
