Our speciality

LCL clearance

LCL means less than container load. Your goods don't fill a container, so they travel in one shared with other importers' cargo.

Clearing a part load takes more follow-up than a full container. The container has to be opened and unloaded, your cartons found among everyone else's, and your consignment examined and released on its own paperwork. This is the work we specialise in.

Part loads are our main work

A few cartons or a few pallets, cleared with the same care as a full container.

We follow it through

From the container being opened to your goods being released, we stay on it and keep you updated.

Full containers too

Bringing in a full container (FCL)? We clear those as well.

Most of our work is at the Karachi terminals and the Lahore dry ports. If your shipment is landing somewhere else in the country, we clear it there too.
