Overview
Interworld Freight is a United States-based international freight forwarding and logistics company headquartered in Miami, Florida. Founded in 1992 — the same year Hurricane Andrew struck Miami — the company quickly established itself as a key player on the South America trade lane when it was nominated to handle cargo for a major California-based consumer electronics company shipping to Brazil. Over the following decades it expanded its footprint to include operations in Colombia, Guatemala, Chile and the Dominican Republic, and opened its most recent branch in Panama in 2020 during the global pandemic. The company offers a full suite of freight shipping and forwarding services for cargo originating in or transiting the United States, or routed directly to Latin America. These include air freight (including charters, FCL and LCL cargo between any two global points), ocean freight, road freight (pickup and delivery, nationwide truck brokerage, LTL and full truckload final-mile options), warehousing (from pallet-level storage through piece-level e-commerce distribution), project cargo (oversize, out-of-gauge, overdimensional pieces, RO/RO or time-charter vessels), shipping container services, and specialized freight solutions. It also provides moving services, including corporate relocation, office moving, employee relocation, secure transport and storage solutions. Interworld Freight describes itself as the largest American-owned NVOCC by containers and tonnage on the southbound trade lane, and as the sole offerer of scheduled, weekly air and sea consolidations to many key Latin American markets. It positions itself as a reliable and stable supply chain partner for companies in the US and around the world, with particular expertise in the Central and South American supply chain. The company is a founding member of the World Cargo Alliance (WCA), which was established in 1999 and 2000 and held its meetings in Interworld's Miami offices; today the WCA is the largest global network of independent freight forwarders. Interworld Freight serves both global agent partners and US shippers, tailoring solutions to each group. Its popular routes include shipping containers to the Bahamas (Nassau, Freeport, Marsh Harbour and other key destinations), ocean freight to major United States ports, and container shipping to the Caribbean. The company is focused on expanding its market share in key verticals including chemicals, building materials, telecom, non-perishable dairy products, consumer electronics, mining, tile and plywood. Its stated corporate purpose is to "Change Lives and Generations" through support for foundations focused on Christian education and food for the most vulnerable, with faith described as the engine driving that purpose.
History
Interworld Freight was founded in 1992, the year Hurricane Andrew struck Miami. The company quickly established its status as a key player on the South America trade lane when it was nominated to handle the cargo for a major, California-based consumer electronics company shipping to Brazil. This early contract helped anchor its southbound business. Over time, the company expanded its footprint to include operations in Colombia, Guatemala, Chile and the Dominican Republic. Its most recent branch location is Panama, opened in 2020 in the face of the challenges posed by the global pandemic. The company states that its growth has come from cargo owners and fellow global agents alike. Interworld Freight was a founding member of the World Cargo Alliance (WCA) in 1999 and 2000, and hosted the meetings in its Miami offices. Today, the WCA is the largest global network of independent freight forwarders. Interworld Freight today describes itself as the largest American-owned NVOCC by containers and tonnage on the southbound trade lane, and as the sole offerer of scheduled, weekly air and sea consolidations to many key Latin American markets, making it a reliable and stable supply chain partner for companies in the US and around the world. The company is currently focused on expanding its market share in many key verticals including chemicals, building materials, telecom, non-perishable dairy products, consumer electronics, mining, tile and plywood. Its corporate purpose is to "Change Lives and Generations" through support for foundations focused on Christian education and food for the most vulnerable, with a stated commitment to putting people first and leaving a legacy for future generations.
