Logistics & Transport  (1)

Investigate different transport methods and the best way to deliver to your chosen export country. 

​

• Would it be better to use road, rail, sea or air?

• Why do you think that (using the categories below to explain)?

​

Consider:

​

Cost
What are the differences in cost for each method?  Are some more expensive than others?

​

Time
Which route is quickest and which slowest?

​

Environmental Factors

Is carbon footprint a deciding factor for you? 
Will you be sending single / individual orders or bulk orders?

Use international courier websites and transport companies such as UPS, DHL, FedEx etc to get times and prices.  You could also speak to shipping companies or other relevant transport companies.
