FCL and LCL compared

While FCL sea freight involves the exclusive use of a container, LCL shipments allow for the shared use of containers with other consignments. This choice impacts costs, speed, and predictability within the supply chain. Dörrenhaus will advise you on which form of transport offers the greatest economic and logistical benefit.
