Logistics is that part of the supply chain process that plans, implements, controls and optimises the effective two-way flow and storage of goods, services and information between the point of origin and the point of consumption.

Sea freight is the transportation of cargo in ships between specified ports - whether in Break Bulk vessels (for cargo shipped in huge quantities), Container vessels, Tanker vessels, Roll-onRoll-off vessels (for vehicles), or Barges (for negotiating shallow waters). The type of vessel will depend on the nature, sizevolume or weight of the cargo, and requirements of the Shipper and Consignee.

Air cargo is transported either by passenger or freighter aircrafts depending on volume and size. Freighter aircrafts transport huge volume or oversized cargo over long distances. Due to an aircrafts cargo weight limitations, Airfreight is charged using a unit known as Chargeable Weight.

Land freight involves the transportation of cargo by truck, trailers or rail between specified locations. Within the Intermodal or interconnected aspects of Land, Sea and Air transportation, Land freight is a vital link.
