If you’re importing into Australia, you’re probably aware that freight prices have risen significantly in the last year. As a direct result, companies that were able to secure pricing in March 2020 have benefited from substantial savings throughout the year.
To ensure smooth operations through both lull and peak season, the best time to negotiate freight contacts is traditionally the end of Q1. Our experience shows that carrying out a (RFQ) tender process can achieve substantial savings across all of your freight expenditure. By securing prices, not only will you have the potential to achieve savings, it will also provide you clarity around the fee structure and will cement the cost base for future product costings.
