A freight forwarder arranges the transportation of products to and from foreign suppliers, including selecting the best transportation mode (air, ocean, land), handling documentation, customs clearance, and coordinating with carriers. They do not take title to the goods (that's the role of importers or exporters), act as a sales representative, or value products for tariff purposes.
