Your cargo is as valuable to us as it is to you…                

CLASSA Logistics , insurance offers services according to the type of coverage you demand in all of your import, export and domestic cargo shipments.

All import and/or export companies know that unless the cargo is delivered to the consignee, the import or export transaction is not considered complete. The fact that there are many risks involving the cargo on the way results in the inclination to insure the cargo (for having insurance made), though it is not legally obligatory.

The seller, purchaser, or anyone who has interests in the cargo may have this type of insurance.
