Freight Terminal

A freight terminal is a facility where cargo is transferred between different modes of transportation, stored temporarily, and processed for further distribution. These terminals play a critical role in the logistics network by facilitating efficient cargo handling. Key activities include transshipment, temporary storage, cargo consolidation, and customs processing. Freight terminals also provide sorting and distribution services to ensure goods reach their final destinations efficiently. Equipped with specialized equipment and advanced technology, these hubs streamline cargo movement, reduce transit times, and optimize supply chain operations.
