In the transport network, several aspects must be handled, which are important to
deliver products to the end customers, one of these is the way in which the product
must be handled, be it maritime, rail, air, road.

In the maritime transport can handle

extradimensioned load and without packaging what favors to the generating
companies of these products, we can´t handle products that have a period of life
since by this means the product handled delays or time in being delivered to the
clients At the end, the nearest ports and the transport freight to it must be taken
into account.

Air transport is reliable due to the shorter time between, but you must take into
account the agent you will have and the shipping costs.

The terrestrial environment has its pros and cons because in the tracks we have
the climatic defects which delay the delivery of the product, the packaging that
must be handled in this way must be the most appropriate to the product since it
handles too much product in it.

In the railway we have the possibility of reaching distant destinations in the shortest
time possible, which must take into account the type of product to handle the
freight and quantity handled
