UK to Fiji FAK

From base
to island.

Duavata FAK is a consolidated “Freight All Kinds” service — one container, many members' barrels, one clearance process, all the way to the door in Fiji.

What FAK means

One container.
Everyone's barrel.

A practical way to connect the Fijian community in the UK with family, homes and opportunities back in Fiji.

“Freight All Kinds” is shipping shorthand for a container packed with mixed personal cargo from different senders, consolidated to travel as one shipment.

Instead of each member paying for and clearing their own barrel individually, Duavata pools everyone's cargo into a single, regular sailing.

This can help create a more organised process for members, with consolidated freight, coordinated clearance and improved visibility throughout the journey.

Why send it through Duavata

Once cleared in Fiji, the shipment can be coordinated for delivery to the recipient's nominated address.

05

Shipment tracking

Members can receive visibility on the progress of their cargo throughout the shipment process.
