What Chile Cargo does

Chile Cargo is a privately-held Chilean logistics company founded in 2006 and headquartered in Las Condes, Santiago. It provides integrated freight forwarding and supply chain services covering maritime, air, and land transportation for both imports and exports, alongside warehousing, inventory management, e-commerce fulfillment, B2B and retail distribution, and foreign trade outsourcing (Outsourcing Comex). The company's core technology is an online management platform enabling purchase order emission, control, and ERP-integrated inventory administration, which embeds Chile Cargo into client enterprise systems and supports document management, customs coordination, and delivery scheduling.

The company operates a B2B sales-led go-to-market model targeting enterprise and mid-market clients across nine industry verticals, including mining, retail, frozen goods, healthcare, food and beverages, technology, apparel, animal nutrition, and dangerous goods (IMO). Customer acquisition is conducted through direct outreach, website contact forms, phone, and email communications. Services are priced on a quote basis with no publicly disclosed rates, and the company explicitly excludes personal effects, household moves, and most automotive shipments. Revenue is generated through transaction fees on transportation services, managed services for warehousing and inventory, and professional services for foreign trade outsourcing.

Chile Cargo is a member of the WCA World Network (Member ID 129921), a global alliance of independent freight forwarders, which provides access to agent networks across Asia, Europe, North America, Africa, and other continents. This membership enables international freight forwarding capabilities without the need for proprietary overseas infrastructure. The company has 11-50 employees and operates as an independent, privately-held entity with no disclosed parent company, subsidiaries, or external funding rounds. No revenue is publicly disclosed.

Product overview

Chile Cargo is a logistics company founded in 2006 offering a unified suite of integrated logistics services rather than a modular software platform.
