Textile container vs air freight: which mode to choose?
The choice of transport depends on your volume, budget, and urgency. For textiles, sea freight container is the most economical for large volumes, while air freight suits samples and urgent collections.
- FCL 20ft/40ft container: ideal for 5000-20000 pieces, 60-75 days
- LCL consolidation: perfect for 500-3000 pieces, per CBM rate
- Air freight: for samples, urgent collections, 14-21 days
- Textile consolidation: group multiple suppliers in one shipment
