Buyer's Consolidation
Technology Empowers Optimal Consolidation Scenario
By combining cargo from multiple suppliers destined to a single consignee, we build an optimized consolidation plan to help our customers achieve supply chain cost savings, reduce risk of damage, and improve transit time when compared to standard LCL.
Benefits
Suppliers handover cargo earlier, free up their factory space sooner, and collect payment sooner. Risk of cargo damage is also significantly reduced.
Service Offering Bundles
Buyers Consolidation can easily be bundled with other Flexport services including but not limit to ocean or air freight, order management, booking management (BCO), 4PL visibility, and carbon offset.
Cost Savings
By improving container utilization, limiting usage of 20 foot containers, decreasing destination labor and infrastructure costs, and reducing inventory levels, Flexport decreases end to end supply chain costs for customers.
