International freight forwarding by ocean, air, and ground -- connecting Canadian businesses to global markets with seamless door-to-door logistics.
FENGYE LOGISTICS is a trusted freight forwarding partner for Canadian businesses engaged in international trade. From our operations base in Montreal, we coordinate the movement of goods by ocean, air, rail, and road, connecting Canada to suppliers and customers in Asia, Europe, the Americas, and beyond. Our freight forwarding services encompass everything from carrier booking and cargo consolidation to customs clearance, warehousing, and final-mile delivery.
Canada's trade relationships span the globe, and managing international freight requires expertise in shipping regulations, carrier networks, documentation requirements, and customs procedures across multiple jurisdictions. FENGYE LOGISTICS simplifies this complexity by serving as your single point of contact for all freight movements. Our team handles the details -- from negotiating competitive freight rates with ocean lines and airlines to preparing bills of lading, commercial invoices, and certificates of origin -- so you can focus on growing your business.
Our freight forwarding services are enhanced by our CBSA-authorized sufferance warehouse in Montreal, which provides a seamless connection between international transportation and Canadian customs clearance. Goods arriving at the Port of Montreal or Montreal-Trudeau Airport can be transferred directly to our facility for storage and customs processing, eliminating unnecessary handling, reducing transit times, and lowering overall landed costs for Canadian importers.

Canada is one of the world's largest trading nations, with bilateral trade agreements including CUSMA (formerly NAFTA), CETA with the European Union, and CPTPP with Pacific Rim countries. These agreements create significant opportunities for Canadian importers and exporters, but realizing their benefits requires careful management of tariff classifications, rules of origin documentation, and compliance requirements -- areas where an experienced freight forwarder like FENGYE LOGISTICS adds substantial value.
Montreal's position as a major logistics hub makes it an ideal base for freight forwarding operations serving Eastern Canada. The Port of Montreal is the closest major North American container port to Europe, offering transit time advantages of up to two days compared to US East Coast ports. The city's two international airports, extensive rail network (served by both CN and CP), and direct highway connections to the US border create a multimodal transportation ecosystem that supports efficient freight movement in all directions.
FENGYE LOGISTICS leverages Montreal's infrastructure advantages and our established carrier relationships to deliver freight forwarding services that are both reliable and cost-effective. Whether you are importing raw materials from China, exporting finished goods to European markets, or managing cross-border trade with the United States, our team provides the expertise, technology, and hands-on attention needed to keep your supply chain running smoothly.
FENGYE LOGISTICS provides comprehensive freight forwarding services including ocean freight (FCL and LCL), air freight, ground transportation (FTL and LTL), customs brokerage, cargo consolidation, and door-to-door delivery. We coordinate the entire supply chain from supplier pickup overseas to final delivery at your Canadian facility, with integrated customs clearance at our CBSA-authorized sufferance warehouse in Montreal.
Yes, we have strong carrier relationships in the Asia-Pacific region and extensive experience managing freight from China to Canada. Our Mandarin-speaking staff facilitates communication with Chinese suppliers, while our Montreal-based customs team handles all CBSA clearance requirements. We offer both ocean and air freight options with competitive rates and real-time shipment tracking.
CETA (the Canada-EU Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement) removed duties on roughly 98 percent of tariff lines between the EU and Canada. For most European goods shipped to Canada, import duty is zero provided the shipment has a valid CETA origin declaration on the commercial invoice. This can save 5 to 18 percent on the landed cost compared with shipments from non-CETA origins. FENGYE LOGISTICS helps European shippers prepare compliant CETA origin statements and file them correctly with CBSA.
Direct weekly ocean services from Rotterdam and Antwerp to the Port of Montreal run 7 to 10 days transit, depending on the carrier and weather. Hamburg and Le Havre sailings are similar. Add 1 to 3 business days for customs release and local delivery. Air freight from major European hubs to Montreal YUL is 1 to 2 days flying plus one day for clearance. FENGYE can quote door-to-door estimates for specific origin-destination pairs.
Yes. FENGYE LOGISTICS consolidates LCL ocean shipments from major European ports into the Port of Montreal, which is ideal for shippers who do not fill a full 20 or 40 foot container. LCL gives you access to regular CETA-compliant ocean service without committing to full container economics. We deconsolidate at our Montreal facility, handle customs clearance, and arrange final delivery across Canada.
FENGYE LOGISTICS does not act as the Canadian importer of record because CBSA requires the importer to be named directly in CARM. However, we offer a functional equivalent for European shippers: we help set up your Non-Resident Importer (NRI) structure, handle all downstream customs, duty payment, and last-mile delivery so your Canadian end customer receives a fully landed shipment. From the Canadian buyer perspective the experience is the same as a DDP shipment.
Yes. FENGYE LOGISTICS arranges air freight via Montreal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) from all major European cargo hubs — Frankfurt, Amsterdam Schiphol, Paris CDG, Luxembourg, Liege. Air is typically used for time-critical shipments, project cargo, pharmaceuticals, or high-value electronics. We handle airport-to-warehouse recovery, customs clearance, and onward delivery to the Canadian consignee.
Ocean freight transit times from major Asian ports to the Port of Montreal typically range from 25-35 days depending on the origin port, shipping line, and routing. Montreal offers transit time advantages as one of the closest major North American container ports to Asia via the Suez Canal route. FENGYE LOGISTICS can provide specific transit estimates based on your origin and shipping requirements.
