– Case Study #1: A distributor of white appliances must have sufficient stock to sustain sales during any period of the year. The distributor will replenish his stock on a monthly basis by importing cargo by sea due to the size and volume of cargo in order to reduce costs.
– Cast Study #2: An importer has several orders to be shipped from different suppliers in the same country but he does not want to ship each cargo independently. Each cargo will be collected by truck from respective factories to be combined with the remaining goods from other areas. The importer will only receive 1 container including all his orders hence better control and less costs.
