Containerized Freight Forwarding

Containerization and liner services have changed the face of shipping and the way general cargo is transported. Foreign trade in India is expected to grow at a rate of +12% per year, which is likely to put enormous pressure on the already over burdened multimodal transport infrastructure in the country. In order to sustain such a rapid growth, the industry is in a state of continuous transformation to maintain cost effectiveness and seamless supply chain movements. At FAK Cargo we know that our role in such a robust and competitive environment is to continuously strive for greater efficiency and to be innovative and unique in generating logistical solutions. FAK Cargo offers a wide variety of services for containerized shipping and logistics.
