Ocean freight is one of the primary methods of transporting goods in international trade. Due to its cost efficiency, high capacity, and wide accessibility, it plays a key role in the global supply chain. With over 20 years of experience, Barmana Farabar manages ocean freight scientifically and systematically to ensure transparent, controllable, and predictable processes.
Ocean Freight Categories
- Container Shipping: Includes FCL (Full Container Load) and LCL (Less than Container Load). FCL is ideal for large or heavy shipments that fill an entire container, while LCL is suitable for small to medium shipments that are consolidated with other cargo in a single container.
- Bulk & Breakbulk Shipping: For goods transported in bulk or special packaging that cannot be containerized. This method is suitable for oversized cargo, heavy machinery, and non-standard products.
- Transshipment & Cross-Stuffing: Involves unloading cargo at one port and reloading it into another container or vessel to continue the journey. This method is used when there is no direct route between origin and destination or when consolidation of shipments is required to optimize cost and time.
