WHAT WE DO
One Coordinated Path From Cargo Request to Delivery
SHIPRAI brings shipment information, pricing review and customer coordination together while qualified third-party carriers, freight forwarders, customs brokers, terminals, warehouses and delivery operators perform their contracted functions. We do not represent ourselves as the ocean vessel operator or customs authority.
Containerized Freight
20-foot and 40-foot container inquiries and shared-load arrangements where partner capacity exists.
Vehicles & Machinery
Cars, vans, machinery and commercial equipment with dimensions, title/export documents and carrier acceptance.
Construction & Trade Materials
Steel, building materials, machinery components and project supply; grade/specification and import restrictions reviewed.
Retail & Commercial Inventory
Wholesale, distribution and replenishment consignments needing sourcing-to-arrival coordination.
International Household Moves
Relocation freight planning with inventory, loading and destination-service requirements.
FROM RFQ TO MOVEMENT
How Freight Execution Is Coordinated
Every shipment advances through a controlled workflow. A quote request is not a confirmed carriage contract or freight booking.

SHIPRAI checks shipment acceptability, operating partner coverage and equipment/capacity feasibility.
Review the written quote
Review freight basis, charges, exclusions, insurance options, estimated transit and responsible service providers.
Confirm booking and documents
After acceptance, finalize instructions and relevant documents with the shipper, importer and service providers.
Coordinate freight execution
Contracted carriers and facilities handle pickup, port movement, sea transport, customs work and delivery where booked.
Track milestones and close
SHIPRAI relays available milestones, addresses exceptions and captures completion details as provided by partners.

FREIGHT QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about carrier roles, quotes, customs, insurance, and developing shipping routes.
Does SHIPRAI operate its own ocean vessels?
SHIPRAI coordinates freight requests and the customer workflow with operating service providers. Ocean carriage is performed by contracted carriers or other designated operators, not represented as SHIPRAI-owned vessels.
Can I ship an entire container or a smaller consolidated load?
You may request full-container and shared-load options. Cargo acceptance, container size, loading plan and availability must be confirmed for the specific lane.
Are customs duties, insurance and local delivery included?
Only if explicitly stated in your approved quotation or contract. Duties, taxes, brokerage, insurance, terminal handling and last-mile charges may be separate.
What documents may be required?
Requirements vary by cargo and jurisdiction. Commercial invoices, packing lists, identification, export documents, bill of lading and permits or certificates may be needed. The responsible broker or authority confirms compliance.
What are the shipping times and rates?
Rates and estimated transit windows depend on the origin, destination, cargo profile, departure schedule and partner availability. SHIPRAI does not guarantee a sailing or delivery date until the relevant terms are confirmed.
Does SHIPRAI offer West Africa freight today?
West Africa trade corridors are being developed. You may submit an RFQ for a feasibility assessment; do not assume an established regular shipping service.
