Because shipping companies and airlines focus on their core business activity of managing ships and aircraft economically and safely from country to country, they generally don't wish to become involved in domestic transport and documentation requirements usually associated with the movement of commercial goods on an "ex-works" basis.

Nor for that matter do they take any interest in the transaction once in the water or in the air, particularly after arrival at the port of destination.

The international freight forwarder is a conduit between buyer and seller,
and able to:
Provide an understanding of all INCO terms and local transport regulations
Meet he buyers objective of timely delivery
Gain access to competitive shipping rates
Determine optimum economic routing of cargoes
Arrange for consolidation of LCL cargoes
Minimise Australian Customs service demands for import duty
Undertake Marine Insurance for Sea freight as requested
