How it works
Freight buying, without the back-and-forth
One request replaces dozens of emails and phone calls. Here's exactly what happens.
How it works
From request to booking in four steps
No more emailing ten forwarders and chasing replies. Sokan does the legwork.

Route, cargo and dates in a two-minute guided form.
- 2
Forwarders are notified
Every matching, verified forwarder receives your request instantly.
- 3

All-in prices, transit times and ratings, side by side.
- 4
Book with confidence
Accept the best offer and get the forwarder's direct contact.
What happens behind the scenes
You describe the shipment
Choose the transport mode, route and dates, then add cargo details — containers, pallets or just total weight. Sokan calculates chargeable weight for you.
We route it to the right forwarders
Your request goes to every active, verified forwarder that handles your mode and covers your lane. They see the route and cargo — not who you are.
Forwarders unlock and quote
Interested forwarders unlock your full details and send an itemised quote with transit time, validity and inclusions. You're notified as each one arrives.
You compare and book
Quotes are ranked by price with the fastest option highlighted. Accept one and you both get each other's direct contact to finalise the booking.
Rate the experience
After booking, leave a review. Ratings help other shippers choose — and reward the forwarders who deliver.
