Why
Insurance?
Just about every entity that imports or exports raw materials, semi
finished goods, finished goods or sells a portion of finished
products abroad needs cargo insurance. This list includes but is not
limited to, manufacturers, retailers and import and export traders.
Insurance protects any shipment through each leg of their voyage,
usually from the point of departure from the seller's warehouse to
arrival at the consignee's warehouse.
