🚢 What is Sea Freight?

Sea Freight, also known as Ocean Cargo, is the most cost-effective and reliable way to transport goods internationally. Goods are shipped in containers via ocean vessels between ports. It’s ideal for bulk cargo, industrial goods, and commercial exports that don’t need urgent delivery.

Compared to air freight, sea shipping offers lower cost per kilogram and is suitable for large-volume international trade.
