Our freight brokers assist clients in making important decisions concerning best shipping practices. Here are several ways we can help you plan a shipment efficiently.
Sea Freight is a method of transporting large amounts of goods using carrier ships. Goods are packed into containers and then loaded onto a vessel. A typical cargo ship can carry around 18,000 containers, which means that sea freight is a cost-efficient way to transport high quantities over large distances.
There are a number of ways in which sea freight can be transported.
Sea freight is just one cog within the machine that forms a supply chain network. Some companies opt to use a specific 3PL to have their goods shipped safely and legally. As mentioned in our Top 5 benefits of 3PL, one of the major benefits of these providers is that they already know all of the requirements and you will not have to engage with a shipping company for each item.
Once you have engaged with a shipping company, they will collect the goods from your supplier and move them through the port in one of the previously mentioned forms. It is worth noting that delivery times should include a delay moving through the port each side as they have to pass through customs.
Even with LCL as an option, you may still not have enough products, in which case it may be more cost-effective for you to send your products via Air Freight or Courier instead. These are both utilised for sending smaller quantities of products, they are more expensive as the vehicles themselves are smaller.

A shipping agency or shipping agent is the party representing the ship’s owner and charterer (the Principal) in port. The shipping agent is responsible for arranging a berth, all required port and husbandry services, looking after the needs of the Master and crew, clearing the ship with the port and other authorities, preparation and submission of appropriate documentation, along with releasing or receiving cargo on behalf of the Principal.
Port Agency ServicesThe shipping agency is often referred to as the port agency or port agent and carries out the following:
Shipping agencies come in all shapes and sizes from small family run businesses to large global organisations. At Cargomate Logistics Private Limited, we offer port agency services at ports throughout the UK that provide a personal and caring service to vessels, their crew and cargo.
Liner Agency ServicesAnother service often associated with Shipping Agency services is Liner Agency Services. Most major carriers have a network of liner agents in the key locations served by their services, and their primary function is to secure bookings of shipping space from local shippers. Liner agencies are therefore responsible for the sales and marketing of the shipping line and provide additional services such as vessel operations, container tracking, haulage, documentation and crew transfers.
At Cargomate Logistics Private Limited, we’ve been providing marketing leading shipping agency services including port agency and liner agency services.

FCL : Full Container Load – this is when the full container is used by a single customer for his cargo..
FCL containers are usually packed and unpacked by the client at his premises at the origin and destination..
The client takes responsibility, liability for the packing and condition of the cargo packed in the FCL container..
LCL : Less than Container Load – this is when the same container is used for cargoes belonging to multiple shippers and consignees..
The clients deliver their cargo to the lines packing station (CFS – Container Freight Station) and the line then packs the delivered cargo on behalf of the client..
In the case of LCL containers, the shipping line takes responsibility and liability for the packing, condition and delivering of the cargo..
But the shipping lines do not offer LCL services in all countries..
For example in South Africa – there is no concept of LCL containers and LCL shipments are handled by Groupage operators..
GROUPAGE : Similar to LCL with the only difference that these containers, cargo packing etc are controlled by a Groupage operator instead of the shipping lines in the case of LCL containers..
The Groupage operator books the container with the shipping line as their cargo depending on how much cargo they have (20′ or 40′).
Once the cargo is packed, they issue their own House Bills to their clients and collect the Master Bill of lading from the shipping line.. Example : CFR Freight
An additional aspect to consider here is that sometimes these service types are considered as Terms of Shipment in containerised shipments :
These terms indicate how the containers have been packed as..
There are some relatives to these above terms shown below which are used as “Delivery Terms” to indicate where the responsibility of the carrier or customer starts/ceases..

Whether you carry freight or need to ship it, there are so many moving parts that it’s easy to drop the ball. Miscommunications, delays, and freight damage can cost you big time.
For shippers, as you grow your operation and ship more freight, you might not have time or the staff to maintain your quality standards. And as a freight carrier, you need reliable access to freight so you can boost your earning potential. No matter which end of the equation you’re on, you might need to work with a freight broker.
A freight broker is a middleman between shippers and carriers. Instead of taking possession of the freight, the broker facilitates communication between the shipper and the carrier. They’re the ones making sure the handoff goes smoothly between carriers and shippers, and that freight arrives safely, on time.
Shippers like working with freight brokers because they have a single point of contact from point A to point B while their freight moves to its destination. Working with a broker eliminates the messy process of negotiating with a carrier, planning routes, and tracking freight. Carriers also like working with freight brokers to optimize their routes and minimize deadhead miles, boosting their earnings in less time.
Freight brokers use their expertise to improve delivery times, prevent damage, and increase your supply chain efficiency. These brokers offer lower rates because they combine the freight volume of all the shippers they work with, negotiating lower rates that they pass on to their customers.
Cargomate Logistics has a digital freight broker service that offers the speed and convenience of a traditional freight broker, but with a helping hand from its powerful proprietary algorithms. Flock Freight serves as an extension of your logistics team, matching shippers and carriers for on-time, damage-free shipping. You focus on your business and let them worry about moving the freight.
