FORWARDING IS A CHOICE
As a forwarder we are free to chose the best modality for your logistics, cut towards your product and allways against a competative rate.
Our contacts and contracts reach into the far corners of every continent. Our knowledge, experience and dedication guarantees quality in sea (containers and break bulk) road, rail of air transports.
No matter what, we will deliver.
Our employees are glad to offer price and possibility.
Transport
Our offices maintain a intensive local network of transport companies. On one hand for door delivery to or pick up at inland destinations. On the other hand for local deliveries by truck within their own country / continent. In Europe we have our own (container) trucks in operation. Because of explosive growth in the anual container moves through the port of Rotterdam we were forced to set up our own trucking operation. We could not find constant quality trucking services against a reasonable rate. Now we arrange part of our transports with our own trucks.
We have a number of transportcompanies on contract. We use them to secure a large part of our daily regular work. Next to this we work through several cargo and transport ex-change programs on the internet (only accesable for transport companies). Here supply and demand come together in order to allow us to be efficient and competative (reduction of empty kilometers).
In any case, you always pay the best local market rate.
Warehousing
We have our own warehouses in the Netherlands and in the USA. Our offices in Russia and China maintain good relations with a number of local distribution centers. We also use facilities of other warehouses. As mentioned, we look for the most logical logistic solution. It starts with location and geography and continues with price and quality.
Custom brokerage
Our custom clearance services in Europe are operated fully electronic. We enter a clearance on line into customs central computer and within 5 minutes we inform you on the status of your shipment. Efficient and reliable but in our own hands. Our customs department has the knowledge and experience to serve you from start (custom code) to finish (clearance). Our USA office is a fully licensed custom broker. Not yet electronic (not available) but with knowledge and experience in clearances, FDA matters /solutions and advise. Since custom clearance / documents in China and Russia is much more complicated we still issue this service through other specialists. Of course also here we will arrange and guide it from start to finish.
Knowledge Centre
The growth of world population creates expanding traffic every year. Especially in worldwide container movements we see an explosive growth. This is interesting and could mean new opportunities in logistics. On the other hand it results into problems as traffic congestion and environment. In order to study these developments and the effects on the long run, we formed an internal group for discussion. This resulted in our department for global combined transport. We make an analysis of your logistics, troubleshoot, expenses and opportunities. Then we establish the most efficient and competitive way of transport. It goes without saying that we also can, if requested, exercise our advise into reality.
