IATA AGREEMENT
IATA approval is issued to freight agents who act as intermediaries between shippers and airlines, under certain conditions.
This approval provides access to tools that simplify our mission.
In return, the IATA agent undertakes to comply with certain regulatory procedures, in particular with regard to packaging and labeling of packages.
A IATA agent appears on the official lists published by the international association and this approval authorizes him, for example, to join the CASS system of connection with the airlines, to collect commissions directly from the companies at no additional cost to the shipper.
AGENTS
WCA is the world’s largest and most powerful network of independent freight forwarders, with more than 7,376 member offices in 190 countries around the world, and Centrimex is proud to be a part of it.
The combined logistical power of WCA members exceeds that of the world’s largest multinational freight forwarders.
Lognet Global is not a WCA affiliate network. It is a semi-exclusive group of independent freight transport professionals, aiming to provide complete and competitive logistics solutions in all the main markets of the world – but with local expertise and personal approach that cannot be supplied only by small and medium-sized independent freight forwarders.
Tandem Global Logistics is a complete international network of independent logistics operators who have been working together for over 20 years, serving the global commercial market under a common image and strategy. Tandem has in-depth knowledge of the global air and sea freight supply chain and is constantly focused on meeting changing customer demands by expanding its global services into a powerful interactive network.
CGLI is a network where members work closely together and take care of each other’s business, creating a secure global environment that senders, recipients and merchants can rely on. In order to guarantee this high quality, each new member is checked before membership is granted. Their slogan “Simply strong together” illustrates the philosophy of this network of agents. Customers who work with CGLI members, such as Centrimex, can rely on private freight companies, where stable property protects customers from anonymous indifferent nonchalance that is gaining ground in this industry.
