Shipping to Cyprus : LCL / FCL Groupage consol services PDF Print E-mail


cyprusCargo Overseas operate weekly LCL consolidation services into Cyprus. We have vast experience of the local Cypriot market and trade opportunities in Cyprus utilising the port of Limassol for our weekly groupage and FCL containers. Cyprus has always been an important Island with a large ex-pat community who take advantage of the good weather, easy living and it's location in the meditteranean sea on the edge of Europe.

Limassol Port

The port of Limassol is situated on the outskirts of the country's second main city in terms of population and economic significance. It is the largest port in Cyprus, serving most of the island's seaborne cargo and passenger traffic. It handles two thirds of the total container traffic locally generated and transhipment as well as the entire volume of grain imports.  Similarly, over 90% of the country's passenger traffic is presently served by this port. As a container port, Limassol provides two terminals with six gantry cranes and a total annual capacity of 600.000 TEUs.  Limassol port's expansion has allowed it to accept heavier and larger cargo vessels to cope with the ever increasing cargo being shipped into Cyprus.

Cyprus & Cargo Overseas

Cargo Overseas understand the logistical opportunities that Cyprus has to offer to both the ex-pat community and traders operating within Cyprus. Cargo Overseas ship 40" LCL groupage Containers each and every week to Cyprus containing a mix of shippers and co-load business. We have multiple weekly FCL Containers helping us to secure the best rates in the market from the shipping lines which call at Limassol.  Personal effects / kitchen units / household fittings / vehicles / pet foods are just some of the products that we move weekly for ex-pats who have made Cyprus their home.  This is on top of the weekly shipments for businesses re-stocking supplies in Cyprus's busy trade centres. 

Our reputation in the Cypriot market is un-rivalled and our customer service driven approach in dealing with the island of Cyprus as a community has allowed us to develop contractual work and repreat business as well as a healthy word-of-mouth volume of sales.  Our volume buying from the shipping lines and forward planning allow us to negotiate extremely keen rates.  Our weekly LCL groupage services offer reliable, competitively priced, efficient transport into Limassol for onward distribution across Cyprus.   

We believe no other UK operator can match our expertise, facilities and reliability when shipping or airfreighting cargo into or transitting through Cyprus.
