In today's global e-commerce landscape, international shipping is the vital bridge connecting your business to the world. However, it comes with inherent risks: lost parcels, delayed deliveries, damaged goods, and a lack of visibility can lead to customer dissatisfaction and financial losses. At CNFANS, we believe proactive tracking and performance analysis are the cornerstones of a secure shipping strategy.

Analysing Courier Performance Metrics
Tracking individual packages is essential, but to truly minimize risk, you must track your courier's performance over time. Key metrics to monitor include:
| Metric | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| On-Time Delivery Rate | Indicates reliability and helps set accurate customer delivery expectations. |
| Loss/Damage Rate | Directly measures risk exposure. A high rate signals a need for better packaging or a different service. |
| Transit Time Consistency | Variability can disrupt your supply chain. Consistency is key for inventory planning. |
| First-Attempt Delivery Success | High failure rates add cost and delay, often indicating addressing or logistical issues. |
