With the growth of container transportation in international trade, the service of container transportation and LCL is introduced. In the provision of this service, the freight forwarder assumes the role of the principal. The basic meaning of consolidation and consolidation is to collect small pieces of goods from several consignees from one place of shipment to another destination as a forwarder for the entire transport of goods to the destination. And through it, the single-ticket goods are delivered to the consignee. The freight forwarder issues a bill of lading, that is, a separate bill of lading or other similar receipt is given to the consignor of each shipment; the agent at the destination port of the freight forwarder shall hand it over to the consignee on the basis of the original bill of lading. The consignee and consignor of LCL do not directly contact the carrier. For the carrier, the freight forwarder is the consignor, and the agent of the freight forwarder at the port of destination is the consignee. Therefore, the carrier issues a through bill of lading or freight bill to the forwarder. If the consignor or consignee has special requirements, the freight forwarder can also provide pick-up and delivery services at the place of shipment and destination, and provide door-to-door services.

This is that he has acted as the main carrier and undertook to organize door-to-door cargo transportation through multiple modes of transportation under a single contract. It can negotiate and sign contracts with other carriers or other service providers separately as a party. However, these distribution contracts will not affect the execution of the multi-modal transport contract, that is, they will not affect the consignor’s obligations and his liability for the damage and loss of the goods during the multimodal transport process.
