INTERNATIONAL SEA-FREIGHT FORWARDING SERVICES

Sea Freight

When it comes to Sea Freight Forwarding, every HEXAGON office branch around the world has the same ambitions - to provide outstanding service and competitive pricing. Our 35 years of experience in the sea freight management industry helps us meet those goals. We provide integrated global logistics for the entire ecommerce lifecycle, shipping from the factory all the way to the customer.

Routing Specialists

Our value-added Sea Freight Forwarding services are managed by experienced routing specialists who will ask you to track it when your shipment needs to arrive, and then tailor the sea logistics service accordingly. If there’s flexibility in your delivery date, then our expertise in international markets can save you even more money. And if your sea freight is on a tight deadline - we supplement our commercial lift with dedicated and part-charter flights to accommodate nearly any shipment from almost anywhere!

Relationships With Select Partners

At HEXAGON, we’ve concentrated on forming long term relationships with selected worldwide sealines and cartage companies, and through these individual partner alliances, we are able to negotiate the best pricing available for our Sea Freight Forwarding services. In our most critical market areas we have ‘blocked space’ agreements in place that guarantee us capacity during both low and high seasons, with the flexibility to expand or contract these commitments based on customer need.

China Expertise

In addition to bringing cross border bulk import specialisms in house, our acquisition of Air-City in June 2019 also significantly increased our China shipping expertise – both for imports into the US and exports from the US to China. This is particularly significant in an environment where US goods, including perishables and other agricultural products, are becoming more highly sought-after by the Chinese middle class. Air-City’s sea freight volumes were already very significant, and the level of cross border eCommerce delivery expertise which their teams possess - coupled with their close working relationships with Chinese docks - has provided a real asset for HEXAGON.

Compliance

We work with you to maintain Global compliance for sea freight exports and imports all around the world – including our specialist in-house cross border eCommerce shipping expertise for eCommerce clients. In doing so, HEXAGON becomes more than just an sea logistics service provider, but rather your true supply chain partner. We’ll continue to provide our customized logistics management support as you increase your number of sourcing countries, or as you expand your customer base around the globe.

Complex Documentation Made Simple

We’re committed to providing you with a flawless Sea Freight Forwarding service, and fewer headaches. That means handling specialized documentation for shipping to certain countries, such as those in the Middle East. We provide certificates of origin and registration, letters of credit and much more including even doing banking.

Global Sea Freight Services

Sometimes next-day service just isn’t fast enough. Maybe you have a last-minute order, or a customer needs a replacement part for an assembly line that’s down, or maybe same-day’ is simply the nature of your market? For situations like these or any other unforeseen emergency, we offer HEXAGON Next Flight Out, a time-critical service. The HEXAGON Next Flight Out service is available for shipments of any size, large and small. There are no weight restrictions, and we can even do the packing for you if you need us to.
