Types Of Shipping You Can Do For Your Business
Basically, there are three categories you can ship your products from China to Nigeria considering the volume of the goods and the time you want them delivered to your desired location.
Full Container Load Shipping- AKA FCL
FCL shipping is essential for large-scale importers who are shipping goods into Nigeria in large volumes. FCL stands for Full Container Load, and an importer who uses it takes up the entire space in the container, be it a 40 ft container or a 20 ft container. Under FCL, you buy up the entire space in the container to house your cargo, so you don’t share it with shipments belonging to any other importer.
Light Container Load Shipping AKA LCL
LCL shipping is the opposite of FCL. It is also the most common type of shipment used by importers, who only ship goods in smaller volumes. If your items are not large enough to contain a full container, your freight forwarder will lump your items along with items belonging to other importers, albeit with differentiation. When the container arrives at the port of destination, the items will be sorted and delivered to their respective owners.
Door-to-Door Shipping
Door-to-door shipping is a service in which the items are delivered straight to the doorstep of the importer. If you opt for this type of shipping service, you need not get involved in the clearing process. Your representatives will handle the customs clearance and take delivery of your items for onward delivery to a location of your choice. If you use the shipping services of Naiyuan Mart, you don’t have to worry about the customs clearing for your goods. We take care of that for you. We can also take care of the local waybill of your goods to wherever you are in Nigeria at a very affordable fee.
2 Ways You Can Ship Your Goods From China To Nigeria
There are two ways to ship goods to Nigeria from China. You either do so via Sea Freight or Air Freight. If you are shipping via sea freight, your goods will be loaded into a shipping container. Airfreight, on the other hand, may or may not use containers depending on the size and capacity of the cargo plane as well as the nature of the items on board.
Of the two options, air freight is beneficial if you want your items delivered to you on time since planes travel faster than ships. However, air freight is a lot more expensive than sea freight. Sea freight, on the other hand, is the better option if you want to cut down on cost or if you are shipping in large quantities.
You can get in touch with Naiyuan Mart to know which method is best for your shipment. The transit time for sea freight is around 45 days. For airfreight, the transit time is within 8-14 working days. There are air freight companies in Lagos that handle shipments from China to Lagos every day of the week.
