A freight forwarder does not transport the cargo, but acts as an intermediary between the client and various logistics services company because products sent from one international destination to another often involve a good number of carriers, legalities and requirements. The freight dispatch company can also perform the job of clearing the goods and dispatching it to the final destination of the receiver upon agreement.

Competing product could take advantage of the delay to get established in the market.
