Buying from overseas?

Choose your own forwarder

When your supplier books the freight, the shipping cost is usually built into the price, and you have little say over timing or who to call if something goes wrong. When you book with us, you get a clear quote before anything ships and a team in Canada that answers your calls.

Tip. If your supplier quotes FOB or Ex Works, you can usually pick your own forwarder. Send us that quote and we will show you how it works for your next order.

FOB and Ex Works are Incoterms: standard trade terms that set where the seller’s job ends and yours begins.

Who we are

A Canadian team you can call

Gaba International Forwarding is part of Paragon International Forwarding Inc., a freight forwarder with a head office on Main Street in Vancouver. Your freight moves through an established Vancouver forwarding partner and its worldwide agent network, including agents in India.

Can I use you if my supplier already has a forwarder?

Usually yes, if your purchase terms let you choose. Send us your last invoice and we will tell you what can change.

Do you handle customs clearance into Canada?

We coordinate it. Licensed customs partners file the entry, and you deal only with us.

What do you need for a quote?

Where the goods are, what they are, the weight and carton sizes, and when they will be ready.
