Did you know the competition for CIF freight in China is so fierce that it has actually forced most UK destination charges to be higher than if the shipment was sent freight collect!
The local market rate for LCL cargo in China has for a long while been negative, which in turn has put more pressure on UK importers to pay higher UK charges. At Cardinal we are trying to encourage people to negotiate FOB terms with their suppliers and thus reduce their overall costs.
Please check out using the FREIGHTcalculator what your recent LCL import would have cost if it was shipped FOB and contact us to make your next booking!
