Full container load (FCL)
FCL (full container load) is used by businesses looking to import or export on a large scale. It provides a much lower cost per unit logistics cost and is much quicker and easier to clear through customs because the full container is from one business.
FCL is also generally preferred for time-sensitive sea freight, as it is easier for you to manage the arrival dates, as they tend to be fixed. This is often important to businesses in peak season when there is high congestion across supply chains.
