Being or becoming a “digital forwarder” comes down to how a business evaluates its own progress in embracing digital solutions and technology. We have a passion for innovation and have embedded our own “Digital Mission” into our corporate vision and values. 

Digital transformation is a necessity that provides a number of benefits to freight forwarders, partners and their customers, including reduction of errors and costs, promotion of more sustainable and green practices, and full transparency of the supply chain.

At cargo-partner, our digital solutions enable us to deliver cost-­efficient general cargo and industry-specific services and can be integrated and customized on demand. They are easy to use, easy to learn and easy to connect with. Over the past several years, we’ve also digitalized and overhauled numerous business processes, ranging from air and sea freight operations up to invoicing and customs documentation. Complex paperwork, often a source of frustration for importers and exporters, is now simplified through automated systems. This not only reduces the likelihood of errors but also accelerates the entire logistics cycle, allowing goods to move swiftly and efficiently across borders.

Being a “digital forwarder” is crucial in the modern business landscape, and if our customers are evolving and embracing innovation and digitalization, then we have to do the same, to ensure we stay competitive, agile and responsive to the evolving demands of global trade.
