What is Groupage?

Before deciding between groupage or express transport, it’s important to analyze each one.

Groupage is a transportation method where several goods/orders from different customers are consolidated into a single truck/container, to be transported on the same route.

It’s a generally more economical transport service because it’s done with an eye to the efficiency of the truck’s space and a pre-programmed route.

Benefits of Groupage

  • Cost savings: Making the most of cargo space and transport costs.

What is Express Transportation?

Express transport is a fast and efficient shipping service, generally used to transport urgent goods or goods with tight deadlines, but not only.

Delivery times are valued and made in a short period of time, usually between 24 and 72 hours.

Benefits of Express Transportation

  • Agility: Fast and on-time deliveries.
  • Reliability: Real-time tracking and greater security.
  • Flexibility: Suitable for urgent and last-minute shipments. Good customization capacity.

What is the best option for your company?

With the levels of demand in international markets, efficient logistics make all the difference to the success of your business. Keep this in mind when you opt for groupage or express transportation.

Transport solutions that guarantee compliance with transit times, up-to-date information on the route traveled, the possibility of last-minute adjustments related to delivery locations and a partner who can reassure you throughout this process can make all the difference with your customers.

If you’re just looking for a more economical solution, groupage could be the way to go.

However, if the priority is fast and reliable delivery, express transportation is clearly the ideal option.

So assess the specific needs of your business and choose the solution that best meets your objectives.
