Their growth has been driven by the marketing of ginger, avocado, blueberries, and citrus fruits
International Freight Shipping SAC (IFS), Conqueror member and freight forwarder in Lima and Callao, Peru, has surpassed its 2024 sales projections by over 30% compared to 2023.

In 2023, IFS set ambitious goals to expand its presence in international markets, improve process efficiency, and enhance customer satisfaction through advanced product tracking and traceability technologies. Mrs. Mónica Chang, Overseas Network Manager, states, “Exceeding our sales projections by over 30% demonstrates that we have aligned our focus and strategy with market needs. This success reflects the hard work of our entire team and the trust of our customers.”

The growth and achievements of IFS in 2024 will directly benefit customers by providing more efficient and reliable logistics solutions. “Seeing how our efforts translate into tangible successes motivates us to continue working with the same dedication and commitment,” Mrs. Chang added. Additionally, one of the most significant contributions to this growth was the export of a large batch of avocados to Asia in 2023. This shipment stood out due to its volume and the speed of delivery, achieved through improvements in logistics and the cold chain.

Moreover, they make sure to maintain constant communication with partners and customers to quickly adapt to any changes.
Looking ahead to 2024, IFS anticipates solid growth in handling larger cargo volumes, especially in the agricultural sector.
