Procurement Function Support
Freight Forwarding, Courier, Trade & Customs Compliance
On behalf of our clients, we perform certain works or take all purchasing in a company for outsourcing. We are asked on board when you need to make purchases quickly at the lowest cost and labor efforts. Searching for and recruiting professional buyers is time-consuming and expensive, so the companies come to us. Equally taxing is the need to know just where to or not to make purchases globally, given growing geopolitical tensions of the day. We have the expertise who are well versed with topics of sanctions and export controls. We offer our clients unparalleled procurement outsourcing.
Complementing our Purchasing Function Support is our Freight Forwarding, Courier, Trade & Customs Compliance. This division oversees the whole shipping of goods and services, domestically and abroad, into and out of the country. Compliance is at the core of this division.
