According to an official release, Conqueror is a solid alliance in which carefully-selected independent freight forwarders in each major city in the world cooperate reciprocally and securely to expand their businesses, reduce costs and risks, and compete on more equal terms against the largest international companies.
At the opening of the meeting, Managing Director, Mr Antonio Torres, congratulated members on their efforts to work cooperatively to serve clients globally and overcome client perceptions that independent forwarders are not equipped to provide a truly worldwide service.
“Cooperation is one important element in our strategy for boosting the business volume of our members; another is our city-exclusivity, like the multinationals, and the third and most important is our annual meeting. As you can see, members are making the most of their individual meetings as well as competing for each other’s attention away from them,” explained Mr Torres.
“As a direct result of meeting our fellow members last year, we saw a marked increase in turnover and I firmly believe that the same will happen again this year; I already have many new leads to follow-up,” said one satisfied member.
This week we would like to bring you the special news of two Conqueror partners working together to form a “multinational” beating tender.

CQR Porto member MGC Transitarios, Lda recently won a project of 117.541kgs of air cargo from Portugal to Saudi Arabia. The load required 8 full trucks from Porto to Amsterdam and 3 cargo aircrafts to load all pieces involved (102 in total, some of them were 2.56m high!). The complexity of the project was such that the final route was Porto-Amsterdam-Luxemburg-Dammam-Jeddah.
When CQR Porto started negotiating this project they found that Portuguese air companies were not offering competitive prices. So, they contacted CQR Amsterdam, AMLH BV H.O.D.N. AIRFRIGO, to find a competitive solution outside of Portugal. Together they managed to negotiate and secure the best rates for the project, beating several multinational companies that were also interested in such large and complex shipment.
The negotiations with the shipper (the biggest technological company in Portugal) were hard; taking over a week to get available space and to convince the client that they were the right partners for the job.

The occasion marked Seda’s adoption of a new business model. The new model integrates trading, logistics, financing and supply chain management with their own IT support team from a traditional logistics company.
A key element of the new model is the finance facility, which is predicted to be very useful for overseas clients as Seda can work with overseas agents and then make the cargo payment to the seller in the name of the Buyer. On receipt of payment from the client, profits will then be shared with the overseas agents. To reflect this, during the event, a cooperation ceremony was held with the local banks to support their financing service.
