Why read Unicore Overseas case studies?

Each case study is a real completed shipment, not a hypothetical scenario. We publish AWB / BL references, actual transit times, and the specific challenges (e.g., DG Class 9 certification, EAC registration, ISPM-15 wood packaging). That gives you a precedent to compare your own enquiry against.

How much of Unicore Overseas's experience is reflected in these case studies?

Unicore Overseas SIA was founded on 13 December 2005 — 20+ years in operation as of 2026. We are IATA CASS accredited, IATA DGR certified for air cargo, with ADR (road) and IMDG (sea) certifications, and members of Marco Polo Line and Lognet Global with partners in 110+ countries. This case-studies page is only a small selection of public examples; the full operational footprint is much larger.

Will my shipment match one of these case studies?

It is unlikely to match exactly — but it will most likely match one of the transport modes (air, sea, road, or multimodal) and one of the challenge patterns (cross-trade, DG, temperature control, oversize container, phytosanitary). Tell us the origin, destination, weight/dimensions, and Incoterm — we quote within 30 minutes.

Have the clients in these case studies consented to publication?

Yes. We publish only operational details (route, mode, AWB / BL reference, transit time) — not the legal name of the shipper or consignee — and only after the relevant client has consented in writing. All mentioned airline or shipping line names (Lufthansa Cargo, Maersk, Qatar Airways Cargo, DHL Aviation, etc.) are public and appear on the carriage documents.
