We have done our own research in the industry and have found that in most cases where clients try to control their own supply chain including the customs clearing of their cargo they lose focus on their core business which is to buy and sell goods.
The expertise in the logistics supply chain remains with the 3 rd party service providers like ourselves who can offer a full supply chain solution on door to door basis using our own vehicles and warehouses and are more familiar with the changing industry and regulations.
When it comes to Customs Clearing expertise in this field is of prime importance and if not done correctly could cost the importer financially due to penalties that may be imposed for non-conformance, storage for late clearances and more importantly loss of sales due to late receipt of stock.
In most cases errors are not picked up by the company and they continue to lose money by paying unnecessary charges which in most cases are not identified or recoverable.
