1. Upon receiving the Release Order from Customs, the CFA gives this document to the Shipping Agency, which then arranges for the raw sugar to be unloaded from the Mother Vessel (MV) and loaded on the Lighterage. This involves obtaining permission from the Port Authority and requires requesting the Port Authority to supply the equipment needed to unload and reload the raw sugar. 2. Once this process is completed, permission from the port authority is sought to move the Lighterage out of the port area. 3. Once the exit permit is obtained, the Lighterage carries the raw sugar to the importer’s factory via waterways. 4. When the Lighterage arrives at the jetty of the importer, the raw sugar is unloaded and stored in the importer’s factory.
