IRRIGATIONS OF THE INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION

Risks are generated in the different means of transport such as in the sea that the
movement of the ship through the waves and this causes the containers to be shaken
and in turn the stowage or merchandise inside and may cause damage to it; on the
other hand, the air transport also generates risks as in the clearing or landing the
merchandise can also be moved by vibrations during the flight among others; and for
not leaving behind, land transport also has its risks due to different factors due to default
in the stowage, traffic on roads in poor condition and maneuvering with shocks that
make the goods move and mistreat for other reasons; For this reason it is important to
foresee and try to minimize the risks to make an effective shipment and delivery of the
merchandise.

MANAGEMENT OF THE INTERNATIONAL PHYSICAL DISTRIBUTION

The elements that must be taken into account when planning the international physical
distribution range from the volume, weight of the product, the value with which it will be
marketed, the place of origin and destination, the packaging and means of transport and
the duration of the shipment and in turn all the relevant documentation for the export
process.
