CFS and Less-Than-Container Load (LCL) Efficiency

For businesses that don’t have enough cargo to fill a container, a CFS offers the perfect solution through consolidation. Multiple LCL shipments are combined into a Full Container Load (FCL), maximizing container utilization and reducing per-unit shipping costs. This arrangement benefits exporters with low-volume shipments, allowing them to access international markets without high freight expenses. On the import side, CFS facilities de-consolidate these shipments, ensuring quick distribution. By managing LCL efficiently, a CFS makes global shipping more accessible to small and medium enterprises, fostering business growth and competitive trade opportunities.
