Where competitive services and reliability is concerned DRT International has a couple of advantages on that too and can provide our best services at a very cost effective rate. We are the tier-one customers for many carriers in Pakistan and we have quite good rates filed with them because of our good volume, secondly sometimes in cases of eleventh hour bookings we can even accommodate the customers shipment on the nearest cut-off vessel (i.e. Closest to cut-off) based on good relations with the shipping lines here, thirdly generally in the case of peak season time when there is a lot of space constraint and container availability issues we can provide customers with space guarantees and good services, and last but not the least we can also provide the customers with a complete ‘One-window solution’ package (End to End service from door to door) if required.
