Sea freight suits okra and the gourds; leaf and the most perishable lines go by air. We quote the mode the product travels best by and say which, so what arrives is what you approved.

The values above are the parameters we quote against and have verified at the load port. Where your own requirement is tighter, yours governs and we quote to it.
