To the right you can see an example of Freightos.com search results from different providers.

iContainers is a freight forwarder. Their digital platform allows you to book and manage shipments online.

When you search and book on Freightos.com, you can choose from rates and routing options from dozens of forwarders. When you use iContainers, you have access to only iContainers rates and services.

There are advantages to working directly with forwarders, especially the direct access to your provider. However, when using a platform like Freightos.com, you can typically leverage Freightos.com’ direct connections to forwarders to unlock the same benefits while also gaining access to more transparent market rates, a range of expertise across forwarders, the Freightos.com internal support team, and the ability to migrate easily between forwarders.
