Businesses are faced with a multitude of decisions when importing product. Determining the best sourcing location, incoterms, origin and destination ports, shipping method and service, freight forwarders, customs agents, and wharf cartage carrier can be challenging - with the competing priorities of lower cost of goods, and shorter, more reliable transit times.
Often a significant component of supply lead times, the international freight strategy has a direct impact on profit, inventory levels and customer service. Selecting appropriate partners is essential to deliver a successful result.
For existing networks, standard procurement processes only deliver one-off cost benefits since the operational processes and systems are rarely considered and challenged.
Innovation is the key to unlocking the optimal solution to access the available savings and service outcomes.
