In the past the Freight Industry was better than this present days, perhaps the global economy crises but it is picking up now. And we do have challenges such as delay of ships at break waters due to congestion at the port and it delay delivery of cargo on time for clients and the Government is also taking the initiative to expand the facilities at the various Port and when it is finally done things will be okay. And the clients do make mistakes by not actually knowing much about the requirement about the goods they bring and when it finally arrive it do cause delay in the clearance process so we do advise our client before hand the Document required before the cargo arrive in order to help them avoid paying demurrage and other charges.
