Best Answer

forwarder(or freight forwarder) is one who renders cargo delivery services(both local and international) like delivery from exporter's premises to customs for local and port of destination in case of international.

A forwarder cannot issue B/L, but if it has the license to issue B/L then it can also act as a consolidator.

A shipping line can do almost all the tasks, it issues B/L,renders delivery, doesn't provide insurance.
