The Technology That Sets Our Freight Forwarding Service Apart
Most international freight forwarders reserve their best reporting tools for their highest-value accounts. We include the NaviaHub for every customer, at no extra charge.
The NaviaHub is our proprietary supply chain visibility platform. It gives you a real-time overview of all your shipments, down to the SKU level - where they are, what stage they're at, and critically, which ones are at risk of being late and exactly why.
The Critical Chain module surfaces the shipments that need your attention before they become a problem:
✔ Cargo not yet released from the origin factory
✔ Bookings not confirmed ahead of vessel departure
✔ Vessels running behind schedule
✔ Customs holds or documentation gaps
With most freight forwarding companies, you find out about these issues after they've already affected your supply chain. With Navia, you see them coming.

Get in touch
What does a freight forwarder do?
A freight forwarder arranges the international transportation of cargo on behalf of importers and exporters. This includes booking space with carriers (shipping lines or airlines), managing documentation, coordinating customs clearance, and tracking shipments through to delivery. A good freight forwarding company also advises on routing, helps identify cost savings, and proactively manages exceptions when things don't go to plan.
What's the difference between a freight forwarder and a shipping line or airline?
Shipping lines and airlines own and operate the vessels and aircraft. Freight forwarders like Navia act as intermediaries, we contract space with multiple carriers across all modes, which gives our customers access to competitive rates and routing flexibility that they couldn't secure on their own. We also manage everything else around the transport: documentation, customs, tracking, and exception management.
What freight forwarding services does Navia offer?
Navia offers international sea freight (FCL and LCL), air freight, 3PL and warehousing, in-house customs brokerage, and supply chain consulting - all supported by the NaviaHub visibility platform. Our freight forwarding services cover global trade lanes across Asia, the Americas, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.
What is the NaviaHub?
The NaviaHub is Navia's proprietary supply chain visibility platform. It gives customers real-time tracking of all active shipments, performance reporting, and proactive alerts when shipments are at risk of going late. The Critical Chain module identifies exactly which shipments need attention and why - before the delay has already happened. The NaviaHub is included for all customers at no additional charge.
Which industries does Navia work with?
We work with importers and exporters across retail, fashion, electronics, home appliances, furniture, building materials, chemicals, agricultural machinery, perishables, and e-commerce. As a general rule, if your cargo moves in a standard shipping container, we can manage it.
Does Navia handle freight forwarding for small businesses?
Yes. While many of our customers are mid-to-large importers with 500+ TEU per year, we also work with smaller importers and e-commerce businesses. The NaviaHub and the same standard of service apply regardless of account size.
How do I get started with Navia?
The fastest way is to submit an enquiry through our quote form. A member of our team will follow up to understand your freight profile, trade lanes, and volumes - and from there we'll put together a proposal or, for larger accounts, arrange a platform demonstration.
