As the first NLO in the market, IFS Spain has been offering a complete range of neutral logistics services for 40 years, tailored to the needs of freight forwarders and the entire supply chain.
Therefore, together with MSL Group brands, we launched the NLO (Neutral Logistics Operator) concept, through which we offer customized solutions that cover different stages of the supply chain: from transportation to storage. Guaranteeing neutrality in each operation, as well as a reliable, world-class service.
Ocean Freight
Reliable departures, flexible services, and customized solutions.
As an NVOCC from the start, ocean freight is our core expertise. Our extensive market knowledge allows us to offer the best direct import and export routes, as well as connections through strategic hubs such as Valencia, Barcelona, Bilbao, Algeciras, and Vigo, enabling us to reach any part of the world.
With our LCL service, customers can transport smaller shipments without needing to fill an entire container, optimizing both time and costs.
For full-container transport, FCL is the right choice, supported by our expert team to ensure efficient cargo management.
Air Freight
When time is the priority, our air freight division makes your shipments fly.
At IFS, we provide neutral air cargo solutions backed by the infrastructure and strength of a globally present group. With our extensive global network and a consolidated logistics platform, we efficiently handle air shipments, ensuring optimized transit times and an end-to-end service that covers everything from pickup to final delivery.
We are IATA-certified, and our expertise and operational capacity allow us to offer flexible and secure options in the world's key markets.
E-Logistics
The most viable alternative for parcel shipments.
Our ability to adapt to market trends and meet the operational needs of our customers has driven the creation of our E-Logistics division. Through this service, we offer tailor-made international parcel solutions for every client.
We operate from an exclusive facility in our San Fernando de Henares warehouse, strategically located near Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport. This prime location ensures flexible operations, fully adapted to the specific needs of each business.
Road Freight
When the journey doesn't end at the port, we extend the road.
Road transport perfectly complements our ocean and air services, allowing us to manage logistics from start to finish, no matter the destination.
We handle LTL (Less than Truckload) shipments, consolidating cargo from different customers into a single truck, as well as FTL (Full Truckload) services, when shipments require the entire truck capacity, ensuring efficiency and reliability across every mile.
Additionally, we offer urgent pickups and deliveries, airport transport services, and the handling of hazardous goods (ADR) and all types of cargo.
Warehousing
Control and supervision at our neutral facilities.
We operate strategically located warehouses in Barcelona, Bilbao, Madrid, and Valencia, offering both LCL and FCL storage services to facilitate shipment and reception for customers in the most convenient way—always upholding our core value of neutrality.
To provide a comprehensive logistics service, we obtain and manage customs permits required for the storage and handling of all types of goods, including ADT, LAME, DA, DDA, and bonded warehouse services.
We are OEA-certified (Authorized Economic Operator), which streamlines customs procedures, reduces costs, and enhances our competitiveness.
Customs & Insurance Services
We assist you at every stage of your cargo's journey.
Our customs management services allow for clearance and transit throughout Spain, including inspections by government institutions for human and animal consumption goods, phytosanitary controls, pharmaceuticals, and other regulated products.
Additionally, we offer cargo insurance services, documentation management for shipping and transport, and specialized consulting and advisory services for the transport, loading, unloading, and handling of hazardous goods.
Specialized Projects
We diversify our services so that no transport is a challenge.
We manage large-scale projects that require specialized consulting and tailored solutions. Thanks to our expert team and global reach, we can transport oversized cargo, special equipment, sensitive shipments, and IMO-classified goods—ensuring efficiency, safety, and full control at every stage of the process.
Rail Freight
Optimized and Flexible Solution for Imports from Asia
In a constantly changing world, efficiency and adaptability are key in international logistics. Given the current challenges in global transportation, our rail service between Asia and Europe stands as a strategic, reliable, and fast alternative for importing goods.
Rail transport complements our traditional logistics solutions—maritime, air, and land—offering greater stability in transit times and serving as an intermediate solution between the speed of air freight and the cost-effectiveness of sea freight. With a lower environmental impact and the ability to maintain regular operations, rail transport is a key and flexible option to ensure continuity in the supply chain.
