For those who transport, handle and buy or sell goods, an effective transport policy is a necessity, not a luxury.
Since losses are unfortunately not unlikely events, but an everyday concrete possibility, to be managed strategically, it is essential to interact with a broker specialized in transports.
A “specialist” broker because the transport business is special, being characterized by:
- A specific legal framework, based on customs;
- An internationally oriented attitude, deriving from the importance of the import-export business for Italian businesses;
- a high risks concentration, leading to a high number of losses.
The sector requirements are also extremely special, not only for the industrial and commercial companies, but also for transport professionals, like:
- ship owners and charterers
- logistics companies and consignees
- forwarding and shipping agents
- transportation companies
- terminal operators
