Live Export Container Loading Process in Pakistan: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Jodiya Market
Hello friends, I am your friend Narendra Maheshwari, and welcome back! Today, I’m excited to share an exclusive, live look at how our export containers are loaded right here in Pakistan before they set off to destinations around the globe. In this blog post, I’ll take you on a journey through Jodiya Market in Karachi and demonstrate the detailed process of preparing, packing, and loading quality products such as cotton rope and brooms for export.
A Day at Jodiya Market
Before we headed to the container loading site, I visited the bustling Jodiya Market—the largest market in Karachi, known for its diverse range of products and dynamic trading atmosphere. Here, I had the opportunity to:
- Inspect Sample Products: We sourced essential items like a broom (broomstick) and cotton rope. These products are key samples that our customers expect of high quality.
- Place Orders and Check Bundles: For instance, I examined a bundle of cotton rope coils, available in various gauges (6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm, 16 mm, and 20 mm). The quality and consistency of these items are crucial, as we must meet our customers’ specific requirements before placing larger orders.
Quality Control and Packaging
Quality assurance is at the heart of our export process. Here’s how we ensure that every product meets our high standards:
- Sample Approval: Before bulk orders are confirmed, we deliver samples to our clients. Once the first sample is checked and approved, we proceed with fulfilling the entire order.
- Careful Packaging: Products are securely packed in polythene to keep them clean and protected. Whether it’s the cotton rope or the broomsticks, every item is handled with care to prevent any damage during transit.
The Container Loading Process
After finalizing the samples and confirming the orders, the next step is to load the goods into our export container. Let’s break down the process:
1. Preparing the Goods
- Collection and Transport: The ordered goods are gathered from various stalls in Jodiya Market. I oversaw the collection of cotton rope and brooms, ensuring that everything was in order.
- Efficient Use of Space: Our team employs specific techniques to maximize the use of available space within the container. This meticulous planning ensures that nothing is left behind and that all goods are securely fitted.
2. Loading the Container
- Live Demonstration: I took you live to the container loading area where our goods are carefully shifted from the market to the container. This process includes:
- Loading the bundles of cotton rope and broomsticks.
- Arrange items systematically to avoid any damage during transit.
- On-Site Supervision: I monitor every step of the loading process. From ensuring that each bundle is correctly placed to confirming that the container is sealed properly, our focus is on maintaining quality and accuracy.
3. Overcoming Challenges
- Container Availability Issues: Sometimes, empty containers (MT containers) can be scarce, especially when they are in high demand at busy ports like Lahore. Despite these challenges, we always find a solution—be it through hiring alternative containers or coordinating with shipping companies to ensure timely loading.
- Transit Time Considerations: The shipping process is optimized for speed. Depending on the route, our goods can reach their destination in as little as five days, while other shipments might take up to 12 or even 18 days. We always strive to keep transit times short to meet customer expectations.
Commitment to Customer Satisfaction
Our commitment goes beyond simply loading a container. We are dedicated to:
- Ensuring Quality: Every product, whether a high-value cotton rope or a standard broomstick, undergoes strict quality checks.
- Building Trust: Our customers—especially our fellow overseas Pakistanis—rely on us to deliver products that match their needs in both quality and quantity.
- Prompt Communication: We provide our contact details on-screen and are always available via WhatsApp for any business inquiries or orders. If you are an overseas Pakistani looking to source products from Pakistan, we are here to help!
