Multimodal Transport
Multimodal transport refers to the use of more than one mode of transportation to move goods from one location to another. This can include combinations of road, rail, sea, and air transport. By integrating different transport methods, companies can optimize delivery times and reduce costs, making the supply chain more efficient.
In a multimodal transport system, a single contract covers the entire journey, even if multiple carriers are involved. This simplifies logistics for businesses, as they can coordinate shipments more easily and track their goods throughout the entire process, ensuring timely and reliable delivery.
