Ocean Freight Services - BAR POD

Our Comprehensive Ocean Freight Solutions

🚢 Containerized Cargo

Full Container Load (FCL)

FCL is the ideal solution for businesses with larger volumes or time-sensitive shipments that require exclusive use of a container.

Benefits of FCL Shipping:

Security & Control: Your goods are not mixed with other cargo, minimizing risk of damage or loss.
Faster Transit: Direct handling reduces delays at transshipment points.
Cost Efficiency for High Volumes: More economical when shipping larger quantities.
Flexible Options: Standard dry containers, high-cube, reefer (temperature-controlled), and special equipment for oversized cargo.

Less than Container Load (LCL)

LCL is the perfect choice for smaller shipments that do not require a full container. Your goods are consolidated with cargo from other shippers, making it flexible and cost-effective.

Benefits of LCL Shipping:

Lower Cost for Small Loads: Pay only for the space you use.
Flexibility: Ideal for startups, SMEs, and smaller consignments.
Global Reach: Regular consolidations across major trade lanes.
Reduced Inventory Costs: Ship smaller volumes more frequently.

⚓ Bulk & Breakbulk Cargo

Not all cargo fits inside a container. For large, heavy, or non-containerized shipments, we provide tailored solutions for bulk and breakbulk cargo.

Bulk Cargo Services

Transport of raw materials such as coal, grains, ores, fertilizers, and liquids.
Dry bulk and liquid bulk handling with specialized vessels.
Strong expertise in managing port logistics and cargo safety.

Breakbulk Cargo Services

For oversized, heavy-lift, and project cargo that cannot be containerized.
Handling of machinery, construction materials, and industrial equipment.
Customized stowage, lashing, and securing for safe transport.
