The world has become smaller and smaller with millions of kilos of freight brought in and out of the UK every week. 9 times out of 10 nothing goes wrong with your shipment, but there is always a risk. What should you do if your cargo does not arrive or arrives in a condition not fit for purpose?
It is essential that you minimise the risk of loss or damage within the supply chain. The first step is to understand the responsibilities shipping agents and carriers have regarding missing and damaged goods. It is only then can you consider the right risk management strategy to protect your business.
