NVOCC stands for Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier. It is a type of company within the freight and logistics industry that organizes shipments for individuals or corporations. NVOCCs do not own the carrying vessels but function as carriers by issuing their own bills of lading or air waybills and assuming responsibility for the shipments.

An NVOCC like ExFreight may not own cargo ships, but it provides ocean freight forwarding services. They consolidate smaller shipments into container loads, manage the transportation and logistics, and ensure compliance with shipping regulations.
