NC Logistics is a small Hong Kong-based freight forwarder that arranges international cargo movement by air and ocean across more than 140 countries. The company serves direct shippers and other freight forwarders, handling the end-to-end logistics process — booking cargo space, consolidating shipments, managing documentation, clearing customs, and arranging delivery. Air freight is the core business: NC Logistics buys cargo space from airlines in bulk through direct bookings, block space arrangements, or charters, then resells that space to customers at a markup. Ocean freight works similarly, with NC Logistics consolidating shipments into containers across major trade lanes. NC Logistics earns its margin on the spread between what it pays carriers and what it charges customers, using a cost-plus pricing approach. Profitability is driven by how well NC Logistics fills its pre-committed cargo space — under block space arrangements, unused capacity must still be paid for, so high utilization is critical. Consolidation of multiple customers' shipments into single unit load devices also improves per-unit carrier pricing, supporting margins. Beyond core forwarding, NC Logistics offers warehousing and distribution out of a 120,000 sq. ft. facility in Hong Kong's New Territories, off-airport cargo security screening, and project cargo handling. The company operates with 39 full-time employees and is led by a management team with over 20 years of experience in Hong Kong's freight industry.
