As a multimodal freight forwarder, we orchestrate every step — by air, sea, road or rail — without physically handling dangerous goods ourselves. Our craft: coordinating the right players, at the right time, with the right documents.
Export and import by air, departing from and arriving in France: capacity booking with airlines, optimal routing, document issuance (AWB) and tracking. Charter (partial or full), on-board courier and critical shipments when time matters most.
Full containers (FCL) and groupage (LCL), conventional and ro-ro. Space booking with shipping lines, Bill of Lading (B/L), port coordination and tracking through to the consignee.
Across France and Europe, full (FTL) or part (LTL) loads, door-to-door delivery. Pre- and on-carriage for your air and sea shipments, with CMR consignment note and tracking.
Long-distance rail corridors and combined rail-road — an economical, lower-carbon alternative. We design the combination of modes best suited to your goods, timing and budget.
Transport documents — Air Waybill (AWB), Bill of Lading (B/L), CMR consignment note — sit at the heart of every shipment. We prepare and verify them, check consistency with commercial papers and advise on mandatory mentions, avoiding blockages and extra costs.
We are not a customs broker, but we coordinate your clearance with licensed partners. Document transmission, export/import clearance follow-up and a single interface to smooth your border crossing.
For merchants and platforms, we structure regular air or sea flows: consolidation, cross-border shipments and fast delivery to your markets. Logistics designed for the demands of international online retail.
A clear process, from quote request to final delivery.
Origin, destination, nature, weight/volume and timing. We qualify your need and identify constraints.
A routing, capacity and pricing proposal within 24 business hours, with a transparent scope of service.
Booking, documentation (AWB, B/L, CMR) and coordination of customs partners and destination agents.
Shipment tracking and milestones through to final handover. One point of contact, start to finish.
HESTRADE is a transport intermediary: we organise and coordinate, but do not carry out the physical handling of dangerous goods. This clarity protects our clients — each player operates within its own field of expertise and responsibility, in compliance with IATA, maritime and customs regulations.
