Freight Insurance
For SMEs engaged in international trade, shipping typically generates a large proportion of overall business costs. It is understandable then, that the extra expense of cargo insurance can seem a costly addition that’s rarely likely to offer returns. However, it might only take one significant incidence of cargo loss, damage, or even delay to impact an enterprise’s ability to operate. Moreover, such incidents do occur in international transportation—more often than you might imagine.
Ultimately, the decision whether or not to insure your cargo is yours to take—but not to take lightly. It is one best made with a sound knowledge of the role of cargo insurance, and why one day, it may save your business.
The final piece of documentation is your cargo insurance certificate. Linxar Global Logistics always ask our clients to check prior to shipment; who is responsible for insuring the cargo? If in any doubt please ask us for advice. We are able to offer you a separate quote for your freight insurance via our trusted marine insurance brokers.
