Your air freight.
Carefree.
A critical schedule or production that depends on supply. Situations that are stressful enough on their own. The last thing you need is a freight forwarder who is reactive instead of proactive. If there is a delay, there is a notification, without a concrete solution. And then you have to go after all the information yourself. That has to change.
That's why Rotra has developed a platform that addresses these challenges. Because we understand that when you choose air freight, you need a partner who thinks with you and looks ahead. For a more effective approach to your air cargo.
