Forwarders that are FDB Certified have passed a stringent vetting process by FDB. The certification process covers a wide range of verifications from proving a company pays their bills timely, has each certified office properly registered in the country of operation and any licenses or certifications listed have been verified as current.
The Logistics industry is plagued with dishonest companies due to the lack of policing of the forwarders. Becoming FDB Certified signifies a company that can be trusted to handle business on behalf of others.
