C8FREIGHTWORKS is the international global freight forwarding arm of the C8GROUP and provides customised integrated solutions spanning across all transport modes for all your logistics needs. We provide the whole logistics solution for your goods – arrange the pickup, storage, manage dispatch, process customs documentation, organise the shipping and transportation between you (order initiator), the supplier or shipper, and the receiver (end user) to and from all parts of the world. No matter what your supply chain needs are, or from where your business operates, our integrated air, sea, and road networks will ensure your shipments are delivered safely and on time, every time.
C8FREIGHTWORKS advises our customers on how to move goods most efficiently from one destination to another and together with C8eLOGISTICS enables users to have online real time access to movements in the supply chain at any given time. This process involves extensive knowledge of documentation requirements, regulations, transportation costs and banking practices to ease the exporting / importing process for companies.
C8FREIGHTWORKS provides flexible solutions to suit a diverse range of supply chain and cargo types. We work closely with transporters in every mode, constantly negotiating the most competitive rates with all providers. This involves comparing and analysing data, designing logistics infrastructures, and determining which services are the most cost effective and efficient.
C8FREIGHTWORKS makes regular "block bookings" of space with Shipping Lines and Airlines and therefore we are able to consolidate the cargo from groups of individual exporters and pass on the savings achieved to our clients in the form of sharp freight rates.
We are able to assist you, the importer and exporter, in calculating the costs involved in shipping goods to and from any origin or destination. We advise on the most economical means of transport, i.e. air versus sea or a combination of both. We also advise if savings can be achieved by deferring dispatch, for example, until the next consolidated consignment leaves. If your requirements are urgent, we will advise you of all options available to you as well.
Our customer service teams throughout the world monitor the movement and location of particular cargo from the time it leaves the exporter's premises to the time it arrives at the importer's premises (and vice versa) through the help of Collabor8™® our Award winning online purchase order management system.
It is essential that all documents be absolutely free of error when embarking on international transactions to ensure smooth and trouble-free movements.
We are able to produce documents which comply with exporter's instructions, letters of credit and the regulatory requirements in all countries. Where speed is essential in the transmission of documents, we will provide electronic copies to authorities ensuring faster customs clearance and delivery thus reducing the risk of incurring storage charges at the port of destination.
We are able to provide our clients with regular updates on changing market conditions. This includes changes in rates, services and schedules to enable our clients to be fully informed.
