ARCON’s ONE-WAY container movement paving the way to bringing operational efficiency in container management. Containerization as an industry has rapidly evolved since its inception. Constant fluctuations and technological advancements in global supply trade has underscored the need to redefine container solutions.
ARCON was born out of a growing need to use technology and solutions to increase operational efficiency and enhance sustainability, while creating an enriching workspace to reimagine the global logistics landscape.
One-Way container movement, one of ARCON’s core services, empowers its stakeholders/partners to freely exchange containers, thus lowering logistics costs, reducing overall empty repositioning and improving the environment by reducing carbon emissions, whilst addressing their pain points. By developing a strong infrastructure and network, through the power of technology, ARCON has been able to unlock this blazing new way for its partners. Key benefits, among others, include:
* Zero capital investment, in-built insurance and damage protection
* Hassle-free depot management, storage and repairs
* No inventory repositioning and long-term commitment
* Demand fluctuation and flexibility
* Tech-driven solutions
Top to benefit would be the NVOCCs, shipping lines, freight forwarders, container trading companies, container depot operators, multinational transport operators, leasing companies, exporters and importers.
Among other benefits, One-Way container movement helps shipping lines and NVOCCs reduce empty repositioning, thereby saving on operational efforts and on empty movement costs. Also, it enables shipping lines to supply their surplus fleet to create new resources of revenue and save on storage costs due to idling assets.
For exporters and importers, one of the biggest pain areas is high detention and demurrage costs. Shipping lines charge detention and demurrage for using containers beyond the agreed free time at both load ports and destination ports.
One-Way container movement of ARCON offers flexible options, where an exporter or importer can either book a container directly with ARCON or with a shipping line as Shipper’s Own Container (SOC) and can then simply return the container at ARCON’s yard at the destination, thus saving high costs otherwise paid to the shipping lines or NVOCC. Being an SOC, the container can also be used as a temporary storage at a fraction of the cost.
So, for your next container movement , ARCON’s ONE WAY IS THE NEW WAY.
ARCON is a part of the Saksham Group of Companies, one among the largest global conglomerates in logistics spanning project logistics, chemical transportation, container trading, custom broking and IT solutions, highlighted a release.
