20kg Hunan Embroidery Air Freight to UAE: DL Ships Small Cargo Via Priority Dubai Direct Flight
Yi often sends traditional Hunan embroidery products via air freight to Middle East for customer samples and restock orders. Most of these shipments are very small, around 20kg each. Many freight forwarders refuse such small cargo, or they do not take them seriously even if they accept the orders.
DL can accept these small orders readily, thanks to our service model of stable channels for large cargo and favorable terms for small cargo. As one of the top five service providers of air freight to Middle East, we buy out 20 airline pallet spaces every week. Unlike other forwarders, we do not need to rely on upstream suppliers to source pallet spaces. We have independent and sufficient pallet resources of our own.
Large forwarders specializing in air freight to Middle East operate differently from ordinary factories. Since we have purchased fixed pallet spaces, we can freely arrange the cargo loading plan. We have a consolidated loading program for bulk shipments. For small orders like this 20kg Hunan embroidery shipment, our operators will create a separate HAWB in the system. The goods can then fly together with the main MAWB. Simply put, we can handle one shipment as easily as we handle multiple ones.
There are not endless large and high-profit orders in the air freight to Middle East industry. That is why we always attach great importance to nurturing small clients. Over the years, many of our long-term big clients have grown from small cooperative partners.

I told Yi that he was not professional enough in overseas shipping packaging, so we would take charge of the whole packaging work. He sent the Hunan embroidery cargo to our warehouse three days later. We follow a complete professional packaging process for high-value and fragile goods like these embroidery samples. We first cover every embroidered surface with soft white cardboard, then wrap the products with pearl cotton for shock absorption, especially for the raised parts of relief-style Hunan embroidery works.
Yi was worried that we would hold his cargo and wait for enough goods to gather before shipment. I explained to him that this is what small forwarders do. We have a huge shipment volume, with 5 pallets departing for UAE every single day. Once the cargo is palletized properly, it can be shipped out on the same day.
After the cargo arrives at the airport terminal, we will arrange it on a suitable pallet. Heavy goods are placed at the bottom, and this batch of embroidery boxes is placed on top. We then fix the cargo firmly with nylon straps and mesh covers to avoid extrusion damage caused by jolts during flight.
Yi was greatly surprised and satisfied with our standardized and customized operation process for small shipments. He said he had only worked with shell companies before and finally found a reliable source supplier. Five days later, the Hunan embroidery samples were successfully delivered to his overseas customer.
