Nippon Express offers its customers export and import shipping services for both, full or consolidated containers.
The global negotiation with various shipping lines enables us to offer various services available to same destinations or origins, depending on the traffic transit time.
Thus, the customer is offered different options depending on the transit time of each vessel and maintaining a competitive cost option for those with a longer transit time.
In the several worldwide locations where Nippon Express is present, we are able to control shipments from door to door and offer a satisfactory service to customers, knowing at all times the state of his/her shipment.
FCL (Full Container Load) = Full Container Load
What does FCL mean?
FCL means full container load. This indicates that a shipper occupies an entire container. There are two types of FCL: One that is loaded by the shipper by its own means, and one that is picked up at client’s facilities, loaded in our Nippon Express warehouses and taken to the loading dock.
In import case, the unloading of the container is delivered to the recipient by the shipping company at the unloading dock.
Based on the options of sea routes, the service of full container (FCL) is the best combination of cost and transit time for goods in full load.
Nippon FCL Services
Our FCL services offer a flexible schedule of departures, with high frequency from / to all ports with availability of the equipment required in each case.
Our staff will rapidly inform you of the available services for you to evaluate the date that best suits your needs.
LCL (Less than Container Load) = Consolidated Container Load
What does LCL mean?
If your shipment is not large enough to fill a standard cargo container, LCL(Less than Container Load) is a good solution as it allows to consolidate your goods with other shipper’s goods. The consolidated cargo is received by a consolidator which is responsible for receiving the goods in their facilities (CFS), and proceeds to load it in a container with other goods.
In import case, the container is discharged and delivered to the receiver in the store of de-stuffing on arrival (CFS). For this reason, the service consolidated (LCL) is also called CFS Cargo.

Our own consolidation products (LCL) offer the highest levels of flexibility in departures, combined with shorter transit times than average in market.
Because of our experience in stuffing consolidated cargo , as well as our regular services point to point around the world, our consolidation products (LCL) provide our customers a reliable service at a lower cost in the transport chain.
