This trend is expected to continue and grow bigger. With all the new trade deals like TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership), TAP (Trans-Atlantic Partnership) and many other similar trade deals between countries are bringing the whole world into one marketplace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAccording to Transportation Intelligence, a leading logistics research firm, in 2013 the freight forwarding industry was at 129 Billion, but as of today, it has grown by another 16-20 billion more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an industry that in my opinion still in its infancy, with TPP, TAP and many other global trade agreements, the need for such services will grow higher every year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnother rapid growth I see in this business is from all the Amazon FBA(Fulfilled By Amazon) business owners, most of who buy their merchandise from China. Now Amazon never accepts merchandise directly from a foreign country, so each and every piece of merchandise has to come through a freight forwarder\/broker. This way the merchandise can get relabeled and shipped to various Amazon warehouses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn This Book You Will Learn: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is a Freight Forwarder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat Is Freight Forwarding Business\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTypes of Freight Forwarders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteps To Becoming A Freight Forwarder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to get started\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow and Where to Get Trained\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat Courses You Should Take\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow To Setup Your Business\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLegal Factors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreight Forwarder Licenses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteps to FMCSA Registration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsurance Requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning a Freight Forwarding Business\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrading Condition and Limiting Liability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow To Promote \u0026amp; Grow Your Business\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Elements of Price Quote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinks to all forms and applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut one word of caution, please don't think reading this book will be enough to get started as a freight forwarder, it takes some training either on the job (like I did) or formal school or online training to get started in this business.
