This company has earned an excellent reputation indeveloping unique marketing techniques to satisfy theirclients needs. In contrast to most NVO’s whose servicesare limited to consolidated container movements toEurope, S.A.I.L. SHIPPING SYSTEMS has developed a fullrange of cargo transport services to Europe, Africa,South America, the Caribbean and the Middle East. Theuniqueness of S.A.I.L.’s services is that it not only offersa rapid, efficient consolidation program to these areas butit also acts as a carrier for fully containerized andbreakbulk cargoes (not consolidated) to over thirtyforeign ports.

S.A.I.L. SHIPPING SYSTEMS can provide oceancontainers and chassis to shippers anywhere in theUnited States through its various lease and purchaseequipment agreements with several equipment leasingfirms. S.A.I.L.’s domestic capabilities include warehousereceiving terminals in Montreal, Chicago, Houston,Miami and New York. Internationally, the company isrepresented by several major steamship agents who en-joy worldwide recognition.

S.A.I.L. issues its own ocean bills of lading, and a tariffdescribing its rates and services is on file in Washington,D.C. (available upon request). The company also pro-vides particularly high liability protection on all cargoeshandled within its system, the limits of this coverage ex-ceed $1,000,000.00 on any one vessel.

S.A.I.L.’s marketing system produces 80% of thecompany’s revenues through freight forwarders fromevery area of the country. The balance of revenues isderived from shippers or suppliers who contact S.A.I.L.directly for solutions to complicated cargo movements orproject type cargoes that require extensive logisticalstudy. S.A.I.L.’s task is the same for all of its clients; pro-vide a fast, reliable and yet economical alternative to thepresently available steamship services so that the for-warder and his shipper can profitably compete in a priceconscious market. S.A.I.L.’s marketing team constantlyresearches and then develops new trade routes and

systems in an ever changing market. The companyutilizes its large cargo volume to negotiate a lower rate ina particular trade zone, or, in many cases, provides itsown equipment in order to induce a rate reduction fromregularly scheduled lines. The President of the Com-pany, Robert Robotti, was recently requested by DuPont8, Co., in Wilmington, Delaware to address a large groupof the company’s traffic and management executivesabout his company’s services and the art of the NVO ingeneral, in Mr. Robotti’s presentation, he stressed theterm "market intelligence" as the key element in the suc-cessful NVOCC service. The ability to translate customerneeds into viable alternatives is the object of this marketintelligence. S.A.I.L.’s staff constantly develops pertinentinformation about industry-wide pricing and routing pat-terns through a worldwide communication network of in-dustry professionals; ship owners, charter brokers, ship-pers, forwarders and other carriers. The S.A.I.L. staff isdedicated to offer solutions to companies who require thetotal option of all available pricing and routing alter-natives.
