Its service portfolio spans sea freight via COSCO containers, road and rail transport, door-to-door delivery, customs clearance and documentation, cargo warehousing at Klaipėda port, project cargo handling for oversized and overweight shipments, cargo insurance and survey, ship agency, and market research services for the LT/BY/RUS corridor.

Distribution is direct, with dedicated export/import sales and client service functions, plus a trilingual (EN/LT/RU) website and COSCO's online self-service tools (container tracking, online bookings, sailing schedules, DND calculator) for client enablement. Marketing and client engagement are supported through the company website and an active LinkedIn company page.

Broad incumbents

• DHL Global Forwarding: Deutsche Post DHL's freight forwarding division, offering ocean and air freight forwarding, customs services, and multimodal solutions across the Baltics. Directly comparable in service mix (ocean forwarding, customs, multimodal) though at vastly larger scale and with proprietary digital platforms.
• Expeditors International: US-listed global freight forwarder with ocean, air, and customs operations. Comparable in core ocean forwarding and customs brokerage offering for Baltic-region importers and exporters, though asset-light and non-asset-based across all modes.
• DB Schenker: German-headquartered global logistics provider offering integrated ocean, air, road, and rail forwarding with customs services in the Baltics. Operates as a broad incumbent serving similar enterprise importers/exporters via Klaipėda and other Baltic ports.
• Kuehne+Nagel: One of the world's largest freight forwarders with extensive ocean, air, road, and customs operations across the Baltic states. Comparable as a multimodal forwarder offering door-to-door delivery and customs clearance, though operating globally rather than as a single-carrier agent.
• Hellmann Worldwide Logistics: Germany-based global freight forwarder with established Baltic operations. Comparable as an ocean freight forwarder and customs broker serving European and CIS trade lanes, though with much broader carrier and product portfolio.
• DSV A/S: Danish-headquartered global freight forwarder with significant Baltic operations following its DB Schenker acquisition. Competes directly for ocean freight forwarding and customs brokerage in Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, with full multimodal capabilities.
• CEVA Logistics: CMA CGM-owned global freight forwarder and contract logistics provider. Comparable as an ocean-forwarding-oriented logistics company with customs capabilities, especially for shippers using CMA CGM and partner lines in the Baltic and CIS corridors.

Direct peers

• GAC Group: Global shipping, logistics, and marine services provider acting as agent for multiple shipping lines across many countries. Directly comparable as a shipping-line sub-agent and freight forwarder offering vessel agency, port formalities, and multimodal forwarding in regional markets.
• Sinotrans Limited: Chinese state-owned freight forwarder and logistics company affiliated with COSCO Group. Comparable as a sister entity within the broader COSCO/Sinotrans ecosystem, providing international freight forwarding, ocean agency, and multimodal logistics for China-Europe trade.

Regional players

• Girteka Logistics: Lithuania-headquartered road transport and freight forwarding group, one of the largest asset-based trucking operators in Europe. Comparable as a Lithuanian-domiciled freight forwarder targeting the same Baltic and CIS trade lanes, though focused primarily on road rather than ocean agency.
