Tri-Med is a freight forwarder and air charter broker in their own right. All freight activities are carried out in-house.

Tri-Med regularly deliver to many unusual destinations, generally unfamiliar to other freight forwarders, dealing with all aspects involved in shipping our clients' goods including co-ordinating onward delivery with other Tri-Med offices where appropriate.

Our benefits as in-house freight forwarders include rapid response, direct control of the goods, from leaving the suppliers' warehouses, to delivery & distribution on arrival at destination.

Due to the high volume of freight booked by Tri-Med through shipping and airlines and hauliers, we have good purchasing power which results in highly competitive rates which are then passed on to our customers.
