Messy Cargo? Only a Comprehensive Freight Forwarder China to Saudi Arabia Can Ensure Smooth Shipment
Abdullah was frank when he said, based on his previous experience importing goods, many logistics companies find his mixed-type orders too troublesome and don't take them seriously. Abdullah's foreign trade company mainly imports auto parts from China, but his suppliers are quite diverse and sometimes change. Since he's not often in China, the work of collecting and managing goods in China is complicated, and one slight oversight can lead to errors.
I told him, "As an experienced freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia, we understand that customers need more than just logistics services. Sometimes, additional services are even more important to them. So, if customers have needs, we'll help them with whatever we can do. This way, customers can save themselves from tedious tasks and focus on their core business. When customers feel that our service is comprehensive, they'll come back to us again." It's our comprehensive approach to serving customers that solves a lot of their pain points. This, in turn, helps us grow our business.
Abdullah agreed. This batch of auto parts included five 40GP containers from seven suppliers. Three of the factories are in Shandong, planning to ship two containers out from Qingdao Port, while the others are in the Yangtze River Delta, all shipping out from Shenzhen Port. For unified management, I provided suppliers with a unified shipping mark and delivery addresses. The four suppliers around Shenzhen produce a variety of irregular-shaped auto parts like steering wheels, water pumps, water , seats, car windows, armrests, door locks, etc. Each type of goods doesn't take up much space, so it's not feasible for factory loading. Instead, they had to be transported to our warehouse, where we adjusted and combined them before loading into containers.
This is where we excel. Not only do we have our own logistics fleet, but we also have our own foreign trade warehouse at Yantian Port. Honestly, only regular and large freight forwarders China to Saudi Arabia can have such large-scale configurations. I arranged logistics trailers to pick up goods from the suppliers' factories and brought them to our warehouse. We then applied unified shipping marks and product labels, and reloaded them into containers based on the size of the boxes. The factories in Shandong produce engine assemblies, transmission systems, and braking systems. They have rich experience in foreign trade and compliant packing, so I directly arranged empty containers for factory loading. This saves time and costs for the customer.
On our warehouse side, after collecting all the goods, to ensure accuracy, I personally went to the warehouse to count the goods and sent Abdullah pictures and videos of the cargo. For loading, I recorded the specific information, quantity, size, and transportation requirements of each accessory in detail.
The automotive air conditioners were the last to arrive at our warehouse. However, it seemed like something unexpected was always bound to happen. During the preparation of the goods, I found discrepancies in the size and weight of this batch of air conditioners compared to the initial information provided, whether due to customer negligence or time constraints. I had to go to the warehouse and work with the warehouse managers to remeasure and weigh everything. The air conditioners are all metal parts, and each box is heavy, but this step is crucial because even minor errors can affect the entire transportation plan. As a responsible freight forwarder China to Saudi Arabia, we have to be precise in every step. It's only by being cautious that we've avoided major issues over the years.
Just when I was busily preparing for shipment, Abdullah came with new news: due to a change in their schedule, the delivery address needed to be changed. Faced with this sudden change, I was initially a bit hurried, considering that the documents had already been submitted. Fortunately, the containers had been loaded but not yet entered the port, so it wasn't too difficult to make modifications. I sent the new destination port to the shipping company, obtained confirmation of the shipping space from them, and then notified the fleet to modify the entry manifest to the new destination port. Since the containers hadn't entered the port, the fees involved were not significant, mainly related to the modification of documents.
