Eldan Cargo

What Eldan Cargo does

Eldan Cargo (legal entity Eldan Cargo 2000 Ltd.) is an Israeli Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC) founded in 1989 that provides freight forwarding and logistics services for businesses engaged in import and export. The company is headquartered in Holon, Israel, with additional operational offices at Haifa Port, Ashdod Port, and Ben Gurion Airport. It employs between 51 and 100 people and serves three primary customer segments: eCommerce sellers (including Amazon FBA shippers), manufacturing companies with overseas production, and import/export businesses.

The company operates a portfolio of nine core service lines: LCL (less-than-container-load) consolidation, FCL (full-container-load) shipping, air freight, courier services, customs brokerage, cargo insurance, eCommerce logistics, cross-trade/project cargo (including vessel/aircraft chartering and China-Europe rail), and integrated logistics services such as warehousing, cold storage, hazardous-materials handling, and RMA management. Its technology stack consists of proprietary digital platforms — including a customs clearance system interfacing directly with Israeli customs, VAT authorities, and port terminals; an online quote request portal; bilingual (English/Hebrew) shipment tracking; and iOS/Android mobile applications. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, AEO (Authorized Economic Operator), and CTPAT (Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism) certifications.

Eldan Cargo generates revenue primarily through transaction fees on freight movements (LCL, FCL, air, courier, eCommerce, cross-trade) and professional services fees for customs brokerage and cargo insurance. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with charges invoiced in USD and converted to NIS using the Shipping Exchange Rate. The go-to-market model relies on direct B2B sales through the website quote system, WhatsApp Business, phone/email, and physical offices at ports and airports, supplemented by referrals from the WorldWideAlliance (WWA) global network of 17 NVOCC members operating from 182 offices and the AirCargoGroup (ACG) air freight network. Eldan Cargo is the exclusive Israeli member of WWA and accesses 350 warehouses across 72 countries through its logistics services, giving it effective global reach despite a domestic Israeli operational footprint.

• Full Container Load (FCL) Ocean Freight End-to-end ocean freight forwarding of full container loads between Israel and international origins/destinations for B2B customers moving higher-volume import and export shipments. Includes booking, documentation, container handling at Israeli ports (Ashdod, Haifa) and inland delivery through Eldan Inland.

• Expeditors International: Asset-light global NVOCC with strong ocean and air forwarding focus, including customs brokerage. Closest functional analog to an NVOCC-led model at global scale; useful for benchmarking Eldan's neutral consolidation model.
