Sea Freight Imports From Kanpur to the UK
At Barrington Freight, we have the necessary skills and knowledge to help all UK importation companies that want to ship goods to the UK from Kanpur. Because it is located in the heart of the Uttar Pradesh State hundreds of miles from the Bay of Biscay in the east and the Arabian Sea in the west, Kanpur does not have its own seaport. That said, Kanpur Port (INKNU) can be used for international shipments by forwarding goods to embarkation docks on the coast. River navigation and railways provide suppliers in the area with two cost-effective means of getting containerised goods made in Uttar Pradesh to seaports on either coast.
British importation firms often prefer to handle their entire shipment from the UK. At Barrington Freight, we can arrange for your order to be collected and sent to a seaport where it will be loaded onto an ocean-going vessel on your behalf. Given the logistics involved, centralising the shipping method can make a lot of sense. Not only will your consignment be tracked as it makes its way from central India to the coast but it will also be traceable as it makes its way to the UK’s shore onboard a container ship. Of course, it is possible to piece together a supply chain on your own but Barrington Freight’s expertise means that the whole business of importing from Kanpur can be taken care of under one roof, offering a significant commercial advantage.

freight forwarding for importers using kanpur port
As a freight forwarding firm that has an unrivalled amount of experience in handling shipments from all over India, our importation services from Kanpur to the UK are second to none. Allow us to make all of the necessary arrangements to have your goods insured, processed by Indian customs officials and loaded onto the most cost-effective seaborne services heading to European ports.
Furthermore, we can offer even greater value for money if you choose to have your delivery grouped with others. So-called groupage rates allow us to share the costs of moving a container of goods with other British importers. As such, you can benefit from a straightforward economy of scale that will mean making some exceptional savings. The time that it takes to get a groupage shipment to the UK by sea from Kanpur may be slightly longer but this service won’t necessarily mean having to accept very long lead times for your goods to arrive.

Brilliant EXW freight forwarding services from China to the UK. Professionally done, readily available for support, and our shipments were trackable. There were last minute issues on regards to customs clearance and redirecting of goods that we take responsibility for, but with their quick action, we were able to swiftly solve it all in much less than 24hrs. Fantastic experience working with Simon and his team, will continue to engage them for the foreseeable future. Thanks again Simon and the BF team!
