Abstract

Freight forwarding business is one of developing businesses in Indonesia. The existence of the business is supported by the existence of export and import activities carried out by the other business doers. Companies involved in freight forwarding are manufactures, trading, retailer, consumer goods, and many others. Most of the companies do exporting and importing in the sustainability of the suffering business condition. There are two types of cargos; general cargo, and special cargo that requires special handling. The existence of a freight forwarding company might possibly be outlasted. The decreasing of global economic condition causes a tight business competition between freight forwarders. Some other factors can also be threats to the existence of the freight forwarding business in Indonesia.
