SHIP THRU arrangements are delivery options offered to customers by OEM truck manufacturers. These agreements allow trucks to be built then diverted to our intermediate manufacturing facility. Fontaine Modification then modifies the chassis to meet customer needs. Upon completion, the chassis is re-inserted into the OEM freight system for delivery to the next or final destination with little or no additional freight or logistics costs. Fontaine modification has ship through agreements in place with 11 truck production facilities in the United states, Mexico and Canada.

De todas maneras dejaría el ship-thru entre paréntesis.

Hola Noemí

"Ship-thru" se podría entender como servicio a clientes a distancia, mediantes servicios de correo de paquetería. Sin embargo, en caso de que tu texto trate de vehículos, creo que se tratará más bien de un sistema de modificación, ensamblaje e incluso personalización, según las especificaciones del comprador del vehículo, en especial para caminones y camionetas. Por lo que he visto, es como si el fabricante subcontratara la terminación del vehículo con empresas especializadas antes de entregarlo al comprador. Compruébalo, porque es sospechoso que todas las entradas de Ship-Thru en Google se refieran a empresas que ofrecen estos servicios.

Algunos ejemplos:

"Omaha Standard has distributors with chassis Ship-Thru status for Ford, Chevrolet and GMC trucks.

The Ship-Thru program allows you to have your trucks upfitted with bodies and other equipment before the truck leaves the factory where it is produced. The upfitted chassis will then be shipped direct to truck dealers across the country via the chassis manufacturer's freight system. If you have multiple locations throughout the country, Ship-Thru means all units will be installed with the same specifications and quality."
