Two Factories of a Philippine Consolidation Client Are Far Apart; Hongmingda China Frei...

On June 8, 2023, a Philippine consolidation client contacted me online. He was very troubled because he needed a logistics company to provide consolidation services for his shipments from the Philippines. He wanted to source products from two different suppliers whose factories needed to be close to each other so that the goods could be consolidated into one container. He found two excellent suppliers, but their factories were very far apart, which complicated the shipment arrangement and made it difficult for him to find a suitable china freight forwarder.

Hongmingda China Freight Forwarder has well-organized, certified warehouses at seaports and has signed contracts with three major international shipping companies. As a vice president of 13 freight forwarder associations, Hongmingda demonstrates strong capabilities in foreign trade logistics, unmatched by many in the industry. After understanding his specific situation, I immediately devised a Philippine consolidation transportation plan that met his needs.

He had two factories, A and B. The cargo volume was equally split, but factory A's goods were heavier and included some bulk cargo, while factory B's goods were lighter and consisted mainly of boxed items. After confirming the readiness of both factories' goods, I chose the nearest port to factory A. Based on the earliest loading time, I selected a suitable shipping schedule for the Philippine consolidation. According to the consolidation loading time, I arranged for factory B's goods to be transported to factory A just in time for the container loading at factory A.

This approach allowed the goods from factory B to be directly loaded into the container without being unloaded into factory A's warehouse first, saving one unloading and loading fee and reducing the risk of cargo damage or loss. By coordinating with factory A to load the container at their premises, we also saved on warehouse loading fees. This method significantly reduced the consolidation time. We finished loading at factory A, closed the order on the same day, and the ship departed three days later, marking the shortest possible shipping time from factory A's readiness.

The client was very satisfied with this consolidation plan as it saved both time and money. He immediately opted for this solution and expressed his relief, thanking Hongmingda China Freight Forwarder for the professional and timely service.

Hongmingda China Freight Forwarder always selects the best shipping companies for the corresponding routes, providing clients with stable logistics services. My clients value quality and understand that you get what you pay for. While ensuring quality, I also help clients save costs, carefully calculating for them. This requires experienced professionals, a rarity in the industry. This particular Philippine consolidation client, like many others, became a loyal customer of Hongmingda China Freight Forwarder after experiencing our service.

Many of my clients, before finding us, had bad experiences with other forwarders. They either faced hidden charges or poor service, with promises not matching the reality. Such issues are common in the logistics industry, where many small forwarders operate from tiny offices and accept any cargo without proper resources, often disappearing when problems arise. Hongmingda China Freight Forwarder uses a self-developed ERP system to manage inventory and share data with clients, a unique offering in the industry. Hongmingda owns its fleet and operates from an 1800 square meter Grade A office in a Shenzhen commercial district, a rare setup in the industry.

Several clients have experienced these problems and ultimately turned to us. After one successful cooperation, our service quality made them our most trusted partner, and they became long-term clients of Hongmingda Logistics.
