As a large manufacturing country, China has attracted buyers from all over the world to import products because of its competitive prices and a wide variety of products. But for some people who are familiar with the supplement, the purchase and transportation of the goods may cause certain problems. Therefore, it is very necessary to choose an excellent and reliable purchasing agent company, and then I will discuss with you the very critical transportation issues.
Shipping
Shipping is a very common method of transportation that many people choose.If you are not familiar with this method of transportation, you can ask a purchasing agent to help you solve it. Moreover, the purchasing agent is familiar with many shipping companies, and can provide you with the best prices, which solves the problem that you need to ask each shipping company to consult the rate.
Advantages of shipping:
1、 Strong carrying capacity. The carrying capacity of sea transportation can reach hundreds of thousands of tons, and its carrying capacity far exceeds that of road and air transportation. It is the most powerful means of transportation.
2、The freight is cheap. Due to the large loading capacity of sea ships, the average cost per cabinet is much smaller. For most goods, the cost of sea freight is less than 1 US dollar and 1 kg, which is the cheapest of all transportation methods. Since port equipment is generally built by the government, ships can be durable, so the transportation cost of goods is relatively affordable, especially for large cargo.
Disadvantages of shipping:
1. The transportation speed is slow. Due to the huge area of the hull, the long time spent on loading and unloading, and the strong resistance on the water, the transportation by sea is much slower than other transportation methods.
Air freight
Advantages of air freight:
1. The transportation time is short, which greatly saves the waiting time on your side. It is suitable for goods with a small amount of goods and tight time requirements, or for some popular products.
Disadvantages of air transportation:
1. The price is too expensive. While saving time, the price is also increased a lot, which will increase the cost of purchasing products. Therefore, it is not particularly urgent for goods, and very few choose to go by air.
Express
International express delivery is generally not suitable for the purchase of bulk goods, and only those who may need to send samples before placing an order will choose express delivery.
So no matter what mode of transportation is selected, it must be determined according to the actual situation, but the actual operation is very cumbersome. At this time, if you have your own purchasing agent company, then all problems will be easily solved, because the purchasing agent will help you solve all the problems encountered when importing products.
