Factory-to-Destination Support
PACKAGING + EXPORT LOGISTICS
Custom Packaging and Export Logistics, from Factory to Final Delivery
Through our affiliated Shanghai Chiquita International Logistics Co., Ltd., packaging buyers can coordinate custom packaging production with export freight, shipping documentation, warehousing, and destination delivery planning in one packaging logistics workflow.
That means fewer handoffs between the packaging factory, freight forwarder, and destination while the project moves from approved sample to final shipment.
Export freight and container planning connected to the packaging order.
WHAT THIS HELPS YOUR TEAM AVOID
Fewer handoffs after your packaging order leaves the factory
A packaging order can become difficult after production if freight, export documents, warehousing, and delivery are handled as separate tasks. Our affiliated logistics company gives your team a place to review those requirements alongside the packaging project.
Repeated explanations
Keep packaging specifications, shipment details, and delivery requirements in one project conversation instead of repeating them to different parties.
Unclear export preparation
Review booking, shipment documents, customs declaration or clearance, and handover information earlier in the project.
Freight choices made too late
Consider FCL, LCL, air, road, rail, or multimodal options according to cargo, destination, quantity, weight, and timing.
Limited visibility after pickup
Plan the next steps beyond the factory gate, including warehousing, shipment tracking, and destination delivery coordination.
FROM PACKAGING BRIEF TO SHIPMENT PLAN
From packaging brief to shipment plan
The final arrangement depends on cargo, destination, delivery timing, and service requirements. The review stays clear from the first packaging brief.
Why review packaging and freight together?
Packaging decisions affect shipping decisions
Packaging choices affect shipping costs, cargo protection, and loading efficiency, so reviewing packaging and freight together helps your team make practical decisions before production.
Container shipping options can be reviewed alongside packaging requirements.

SHIPMENT DECISION GUIDE
Which freight route fits your shipment?
The right route depends on order volume, cubic space, launch timing, and destination—not just the freight rate. Use this comparison as a starting point, then let the team build the shipment plan around your packaging schedule.
Ocean FCL
Lower unit cost at scale- Best for
- Full-container orders, repeat production, or palletized cartons.
- Trade-off
- More economical per unit, with a longer transit window.
- Plan around
- Container space, loading date, and destination delivery slot.
Ocean LCL
Flexible for smaller lots- Best for
- Smaller orders, mixed SKUs, or a first shipment.
- Trade-off
- Less volume commitment, with more consolidation handovers.
- Plan around
- Carton count, dimensions, pickup date, and labeling.
Air Freight
Speed for urgent needs- Best for
- Samples, launch deadlines, urgent replenishment, or lightweight goods.
- Trade-off
- Shorter transit, with a higher transport cost.
- Plan around
- Ready date, chargeable weight, and margin impact.
Multimodal
Balance route and coverage- Best for
- Shipments needing a coordinated mix of ocean, rail, road, or air.
- Trade-off
- Balances cost and timing, but needs tighter handover planning.
- Plan around
- Transfer points, customs documents, and final-mile ownership.
