Transshipment

What Is Transshipment?

Transshipment refers to the transfer of goods from one mode of transport to another, such as unloading containers from a ship to a train. This typically occurs at hubs or transshipment centers, where shipments are consolidated for onward transport. Smooth transshipment processes prevent delays and support an efficient, seamless supply chain.
