Network Membership - Criteria                                                                                         

 

Five Star Freight Systems World Agency Network operates an "exclusive network" policy for all its members, which has been democratically voted for by its own members.

All potential new agents joining should not belong to another network.(However, if we fail to recruit an agent in a country that is not in another network, we will waive that rule to accept an agent belonging to another network so we have cover for our group in that country)

Succesful applicants to FS will be granted sole agency of their home territory and may book and pay for any adjoining territory (if that territory is available.)

(Exeptions are Australia, China, South Africa and the USA, and agents that underperform and do not maximise their territories to their potential. In such cases a second (duel) agent will be introduced to increase dynamics, competition and inter group shipment generation.

To view the Groups current available areas please see the vacant list at the end of the list on the A-Z home page, howvever it is adviseable to send a general enquiry as the agent in your home country may be underperforming and so we may be seeking an additional new partner there!

Annual fees are available by writing to the
