Ocean

We offer full container ocean shipping on as many as 10-12 different “direct” carrier contracts. This enables AIC to offer multiple carriers per trade lane each with variable cut off time, transit times and cost structures. You can fully customize your supply chain to reflect your cargo’s desired timeline: scaled pricing structure, reflecting desired turnaround and cost to most all transits cost requirements.

Need to ship less than a full container, no problem. AIC offers weekly consolidation services to/from over 50 plus countries that we service. Even if you purchase from multiple suppliers within a given geographic region we have the capability to consolidate your “less than container” (LCL) shipments into a single consignee full container - helping you maximize efficiencies and reduce shipping expenses.

Container Management

Sometimes, just moving cargo at the cheapest possible price is not always the most cost effective solution in the long run. Why take the risk of signing your own carrier contracts - we can show you how to get the best of both worlds and save on expenses at the same time. AIC offers a “break out” service where the supply chain requirements that the ocean carriers cannot provide are offered regardless of the fact that the shipments move on your contracts. By securing these services from AIC you will realize the full impact of your negotiated cost savings.

End to End Transparency

“The end-to-end transparency has allowed us to make Logistics decisions to lower costs such as storage at port and the ability to reroute our freight to another port if a pattern of congestion. One report in AmeriReports that actually helps with this is the “Ocean Carrier Transit Times with delivery”. We are able to track from the sail date to the delivery date. We are able to spot patterns of much longer transit times and investigate as to what the issue is and where we can make improvements.”
