Project Overview

The requirement of the client was the import of heavy Cargo from China, which cannot be done by containerized cargo because of its size and weight constraints. The only way to ship the Cargo is through breakbulk cargo from China to India. 

This is a form of cargo where there is cargo that is too big, too heavy, or irregular in shape to be moved in any other form except breakbulk. As a leading company in breakbulk shipping in India, the project required a lot of planning.

Key Highlights

• Coordinating logistics end to end of break bulk cargo from China to India, from origin to Mumbai Port
• Special handling and lashing/ securing of heavy equipment
• Carefully choosing the right vessels that would transport the break bulk cargo (not containerized cargo)
• Smooth customs clearance at Mumbai Port
• On-site coordination for safe discharge of cargo to be delivered to client’s premises
• No damaged cargo and no delays due to import of heavy Cargo from China

Results

FreightSol successfully executed its first-ever breakbulk shipment, delivering the Cargo safely and on schedule. This milestone strengthened the company's position in breakbulk shipping in India, opening doors to serve more clients with heavy industrial and project cargo import needs from China and other origins.
