ocean freight is products and goods (cargo) that are shipped by ocean vessel, typically in large quantities. Ocean freight transportation begins at a named port terminal, where the ocean freight company you’ve selected receives the cargo. It is then prepared and loaded onto the vessel.
Put simply, ocean freight is a mode of transporting goods through sea. Under this practice, large quantities of goods are packed in containers and transported overseas using sea routes. It is one of the most common modes of transportation used by exporters and importers worldwide.
