ECU Worldwide, the global leader in LCL consolidation geared to offer hassle-free ocean freight services and customized solutions to clients

The COVID-19 outbreak has not only emerged as a major world health crisis but also exerted a destabilizing impact on global trade and economy. The decision by the US Government to suspend air travel from Europe to the USA is bound to hold wide-ranging ramifications for global air freight movement with a foreseeable reduction in belly space for cargo. This is likely to affect both cargo rates and volume capacity substantially. Major countries around the globe have also implemented preventive measures and imposed restrictions on movement of people and goods worldwide. This has led to large-scale rescheduling and cancellation of flights which may result in unforeseen delays and non-availability of space for air freight transport. 

As the space for air freight movement gets constricted and trade volumes shrink, ocean freight transport is emerging as a viable and cost-effective alternative with a wider reach for moving cargo to destinations across the globe. For the discerning customer wanting to transport his cargo in a streamlined manner across global shipping routes, ECU Worldwide, the global leader in LCL consolidation offers seamless ocean freight services and customized cargo solutions across multiple trade lanes including to and from Europe to USA and Canada.
