BUSINESS

 

Operations:

 

International Fast Forwarding Corp. is a private company located in Laredo, Texas. International Fast Forwarding Corp's line of business is freight transportation arrangement.

 

Industry Overview:

 

Industry revenues are strongly affected by national and international business activity. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient operations and good marketing. Small companies can compete effectively with large ones because there are few economies of scale in local booking offices. Revenues per employee are about $120,000 at both large and small firms. Companies that provide freight shipping services are either fully integrated carriers, like Menlo Worldwide and BAX Global, that own truck, rail, air or ocean assets, or freight forwarders, like Robinson and EGL, that arrange shipments and local pickup through independent carriers.

 

Freight forwarders often provide greater flexibility and lower price than integrated carriers, which specialize in carrying large volumes on fixed schedules over predetermined routes. Integrated companies make money mainly by carrying goods; freight forwarders make money on the spread between the rates they charge customers and the rates they pay carriers. Both types of shippers also offer other services they charge fees for, such as logistics, supply-chain consulting, and customs brokerage. Expeditors International gets about 60 percent of its revenue from air freight, 28 percent from ocean freight, and 12 percent from customs brokerage and other services. Freight shippers have specialized knowledge about schedules, rates, and available carriers.
