In every market
The same four things, wherever the goods land.
A market is only open to you if all four of these work. That is why we hold permanent positions rather than representation agreements.
Clearance
Customs handled locally
Customs and clearance services delivered by teams with complete mastery of local customs law and Incoterms.
Payment
Money that arrives
Conversion and payment systems, exchange, letters of credit and payment guarantees — the part of a cross-border deal that most often fails.
Transport
Optimal routing
Transportation services using the international methods that reduce both time and cost for the specific corridor.
Standing
Local partnerships
Business, legal and contract consulting, plus intellectual property registration and branding to protect your position.
