International Freight Division

Seafreight forwarding is often regarded as one of the most important elements in international shipping. The increasing specialisation on international shipping and its ensuing complexities have prompted international traders to outsource their shipping formalities to freight forwarders or, in our case, IFD who acts as a gateway partner removing the hassle and tedium of international traders (importers and exporters) associated with the complexities of international shipping. Seafreight forwarder can offer advice on unique international shipping requirement of various countries and is able to offer the most cost efficient and economical international routes for importation and exportation.

Typically, seafreight forwarder operates as a “smaller” shipper which reserves space on vessels in large quantity but at lower rates and sell in smaller space to shippers who have LCL shipments. Subsequently, these small LCL shipments will be consolidated into container loads that move under one bill of lading.

Our IFD, under the brand name of NYK Logistics & Megacarrier, is able to act as a one-stop international shipping forwarder by providing more comprehensive logistics solutions as compared to the smaller freight forwarders due to our well-established logistics facilities and global shipping network through our alliances with NYK Group. NYK’s worldwide shipping network has enabled us to provide one-stop international shipping services from point of origin to its final destination under one roof that it frees the customers from tedious and costly multi-party handling and communication. In summary, our IFD is a “small” non vessel operating common carrier capable of delivering services on par with larger carriers, but at lower costs.

The IFD is located in all major seaports in Peninsular Malaysia namely Port Klang, Penang and Pasir Gudang.
