Group Procurement
Ocean Freight Space Group Procurement
Volumes pooled to negotiate space and rates, with peak-season allocation guarantees and door delivery.
Overview
For companies shipping often but in quantities too small to sign an annual rate agreement alone. Pooled volume gives leverage with carriers or a first-tier forwarder, and space is protected through peak season so cargo is not rolled at the port.
Coverage spans major trades (Europe/Mediterranean, North America, Middle East, Southeast Asia) for both FCL and LCL. Rate locking, space guarantee, customs clearance and door delivery are included, along with advance notice of peak-season surcharges.
Monthly freight and transit statistics help tune shipping cadence. Quarterly or annual framework agreements can be signed with an agreed mechanism for rate adjustment.
