INC. Business Matchmakers · Personal introductions
Air or sea freight chosen around the whole shipment.
INC. Business Matchmakers discusses what you need and explores which personal introduction through our network could fit. You and the specialist then agree directly on the work to be carried out.
Choosing international freight involves the complete journey, not just the flight or sea crossing. INC. helps describe cargo, timing and destination before exploring a personal introduction to an appropriate freight professional.
Prepare the shipment facts
Describe the goods, value, dimensions, weight and packaging. State pickup and final delivery addresses, readiness date and required arrival period. Flag batteries, liquids or other potentially restricted goods for specialist assessment. Accurate cargo information helps the forwarder investigate permitted routes, handling requirements and suitable services.
Compare complete routes and tradeoffs
Ask about collection, main transport, transfers, customs handling and final delivery. Discuss timing uncertainty, consolidation and the consequences of missing a departure. Compare a complete cost breakdown rather than a headline freight amount. Clarify commercial delivery terms and each party’s responsibilities with appropriate expertise.
Make documentation and exceptions manageable
Agree who supplies invoices, product information and any required permits or certificates. Identify the contact for customs questions, delays or damage. INC. prepares the introduction; routing, booking, charges and transport conditions are confirmed directly with the freight provider. Specialist customs, insurance or trade advice may be a separate assignment.
Frequently asked questions
Is air freight always the right choice for urgency?
Describe the deadline and the complete route. Ask the forwarder to compare realistic door-to-door options, including preparation, handling and customs time.
Can we ship less than a container?
State volume and cargo characteristics. The forwarder can assess consolidation options and explain handling, timing and charges for the actual shipment.
Who handles import formalities?
Agree this before booking. Identify the responsible parties and documents for the destination rather than assuming freight booking includes every customs task.
