August, 27th Honiara - Companies and individuals looking to import or export goods in a reliable and efficient manner can now do so with Express Freight Management (EFM).

EFM was established in Papua New Guinea more than 30 years ago, and offers freight solutions across the Asia-Pacific region. It expanded its reach to Solomon Islands in 2010.

EFM provides a comprehensive range of agency services in Solomon Islands, including port agency, customs brokerage, and sea and air freight forwarding through its partnerships with Solomon Airlines, Air Nuigini and FedEx.

The company, a regional industry-leader in the freight services prides itself in its tailored and efficient customer service, attributing these to their success.

Rachel Mercado, EFM Country Manager said EFM understands the challenges faced by individuals and businesses in the Solomon Islands in getting goods in and out of the country due to inconsistent, inefficient and costly storage and transportation, as well as complicated customs processes.
