Busy season for Santa's helpers

By M. Fernandez

The steady influx of migrants has given the freight forwarding business in New Zealand a huge boost.

Six Filipino entrepreneurs are now in heal-thy competition meeting the needs of customers wanting to forward X’Mas Boxes to and from Manila.

The more established companies can deliver your Box within 5-6 weeks. One happy customer Pinoy.Net.NZ spoke to says she sent a X'Mas Box in late November and it reached her family in a Province on Christmas Day!

Over the years, operators have extended their service to new destinations like Cebu, the Middle East, Australia and the US.

It pays to pick well-known names who have been around for a while for your shipments as they already know the ropes and the whole process can be expected to be smooth and on-time.

The other advantage of using the bigger companies is the likelihood of your Boxes going in their own containers rather than as loose cargo.
