GRONE offers a full package of services of international cargo transportation, including consolidated cargo transportation.
Consolidated cargo is the combination of several small consignments of goods into one large commodity batch for further transit along an identical or similar route. During consolidation, the cargo can be completed together with another batch or even many ones, from different suppliers, and placed in a single shipping container. Consolidated shipments are sent by sea, rail, automobile or air transport.
It is advantageous to use consolidation in international cargo transportation in cases when the weight and/or volume of a single batch of cargo is not that significant to make the transportation of it profitable. For example, while purchasing goods in small batches. This solution is especially relevant in international air cargo transportation. By sending their goods as part of a consolidated air cargo, the customers can take advantage of all the benefits of international air transportation – speed, safety, control – saving significantly on tariffs.
