What foreign trade outsourcing is
Foreign trade outsourcing means handing foreign trade operations over to an outside team. You focus on sales and production, while specialists handle transport, documents and customs.
Our staff includes qualified, certified foreign trade specialists. This allows us to handle tasks of any complexity and urgency with our own resources.
Which tasks can be handed over
We define the scope of work to suit your task. It usually includes:
- support for a shipment from order to receipt of the goods
- preparation and checking of documents
- organisation of international transport
- customs clearance
- consolidation and storage of cargo in warehouses
- calculation of the cost and transit time of a shipment before it starts
Who it suits
Companies that are just starting to work with foreign suppliers and are not ready to hire a department. Companies with irregular shipments, where an in-house specialist would not have enough work. And those whose volumes have grown and whose own team can no longer cope.
The format suits both a one-off shipment and ongoing work.
How work begins
Tell us what you ship, or plan to ship, and from where. A personal manager is assigned to you and handles the deal throughout. For your first shipment we prepare a preliminary calculation within 1–2 days.
After that the work follows a clear pattern: you set the task, the manager agrees the route, documents and clearance procedure with you and keeps you informed on the progress of the shipment.
If you first need to understand the issue, start with a foreign trade consultation. Payment to the supplier is a separate service: financial logistics.
Request a rate
Tell us the route and the cargo, and we will prepare a preliminary calculation within 1–2 days.
The website does not collect personal data: you request a quote directly via a messenger, by phone or by email.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much does foreign trade outsourcing cost?
The cost depends on the scope of tasks and on the number and regularity of shipments. The terms are discussed individually. We prepare a preliminary calculation for a specific shipment within 1–2 days.
How is foreign trade outsourcing different from ordinary transport?
With transport, we deliver a specific consignment. With outsourcing, we handle your foreign trade shipments from start to finish: documents, transport, customs clearance and related matters.
Can I hand over only some of the tasks?
The scope of work is defined to suit your task. Tell us what you want to keep in-house and what to hand over, and we will propose a format.
Who will handle our shipments?
A personal manager assigned to you for the whole deal cycle. The tasks are handled by the company’s in-house specialists.
We have never imported before. Will you help with the first shipment?
Yes. It is convenient to start with a foreign trade consultation: we will go through the goods, documents and route, and then calculate the shipment.
Which countries do you work with?
The most popular destinations are the countries of the European Union, China and the USA. The full list is on the destinations page.
Do you help with payment to a foreign supplier?
This is a separate service, financial logistics. The terms are discussed individually.
