Full Container Load (FCL) is the optimal shipping solution for import–export businesses with stable volumes, large shipment sizes, and high requirements for schedule reliability, cost efficiency, and cargo safety.
With KVN OceanPro, shipments are operated on core trade lanes where KVN Logistics maintains consistent volumes, direct carrier relationships, and a reliable overseas agent network. Currently, KVN handles approximately 10,000 TEUs per year, focusing on routes where we have real operational strengths rather than claiming global coverage.
What is FCL? Why choose FCL over LCL?
FCL (Full Container Load) refers to booking an entire container exclusively for one shipper.
It is best suited for shipments that:
- Move in large volumes or on a regular schedule
- Have high value or require dedicated handling
- Need to minimize risks associated with cargo consolidation
- Require stable sailing schedules and clear transit times
Quick Comparison: FCL vs LCL
| Criteria | FCL | LCL |
| Safety | Highest | Medium |
| Transit time | Fast & stable | Slower (consolidation required) |
| Risk level | Very low | Higher due to co-loading |
| Cost | Best for large shipments | Best for small shipments |
→ For manufacturers and trading companies with recurring shipments, FCL is the standard choice for better control of cost and logistics performance.
