Intermediate Destination

An Intermediate Destination is a stopping point for a shipment prior to the final destination. This can be an important step in ensuring that the goods reach their intended destination in a timely manner. By using an intermediate destination, companies can avoid potential delays and ensure that their shipments are delivered as quickly as possible.

An Intermediate Destination could be:

• a warehouse,
• port,
• another transportation hub.

When choosing an intermediate destination, it is important to consider the location’s logistical capabilities, such as its ability to handle large shipments or its proximity to the final destination. Additionally, companies should make sure that they have established a relationship with an intermediary who can handle the shipment in a timely and efficient manner.
