For businesses with small shipment volumes that do not require a full container, Less than Container Load (LCL) shipping is a cost-efficient solution for international trade. With KVN LCLConnect, your cargo is professionally consolidated, shipped on fixed sailing schedules, and transparently tracked throughout the journey.
What is LCL and when should businesses choose LCL shipping?
LCL (Less than Container Load) refers to a shipping method where multiple shippers’ cargo is consolidated into a single container. Each shipper pays only for the space or weight they use.
LCL is ideal for:
- Small-volume shipments
- Irregular export activities
- Samples and market testing cargo

LCL helps businesses reduce logistics costs while maintaining access to global markets.
