Mercator regularly handles export shipping to Jordan of UK manufactured goods. There is a demand in Jordan for well-made homeware and other UK goods such as equipment and machinery.
Jordan has a very small coastline (the rest of the country being landlocked) at the south west of the country next to Egypt. All sea freight to Jordan generally arrives into Aqaba in Jordan, rather than arriving in a neighbouring country and being trucked across the border. Direct sailings of sea freight to Jordan are more economical and reliable. The sea freight shipping to Jordan route is via the Suez Canal and the Gulf of Aqaba. Most sea freight sailings from the UK to Jordan depart from Felixstowe.
Whether you need a full 40′ shipping container or you have a pallet so require space in a shared container (LCL), our export team can handle your sea freight shipping to Japan from the UK.
Air freight to Jordan departs from the UK daily from the major London airports and arrives into Amman, in the north west of the country and also Aqaba (in the south). Direct air freight to Jordan is possible with 4 days days (once you have factored in loading, unloading and Jordan customs clearance times), whereas sea freight shipping to Jordan can take up to two weeks.
Most UK manufacturers exporting to Jordan will choose to ship their consignment via sea freight as it is more economical and a two week transit time is relatively fast for the distance being covered. However, if a shipment is urgent, fragile or particularly light then we would recommend shipping it via air freight to Jordan.
We have a reliable freight forwarding partner agent based in Amman, Jordan, thanks to our founding membership of a global network (MarcoPoloLine). We can call on this local freight forwarding office to handle the arrival of your goods in Jordan. They will be able to arrange for regular freight forwarding services in Jordan such as customs clearance, storage, and onward delivery of your goods.
