sample consolidation & forwarding
WHAT IS IT?
It is a service that allows companies to combine multiple small shipments of samples into one larger shipment to save on shipping costs. This can be done by a third-party logistics provider or freight forwarder who will handle the consolidation of the samples and the forwarding of the consolidated shipment to the final destination. This service helps companies to reduce the costs associated with shipping multiple small sample shipments, as well as make the logistics process more efficient.
