What are Export Services?
Export logistics services include any of the supply chain services that facilitate the smooth transportation of goods from a country where they are being produced to an international market. This includes shipping, handling, documentation, packaging, securing the goods, warehousing, and customs clearance. Bonded carriers also coordinate with ocean carriers ensuring seamless ocean freight shipping. At CW Freight, we are a Chicago based bonded carrier, offering comprehensive export logistics services throughout Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Minnesota, Iowa, and Nebraska.
How Does It Work?
Here is a simple breakdown of the process:
- Market identification and contact: The first step involves the shipper identifying an international market that uses the products produced by the company. A local export services company is then contacted to ship the products to the international market.
- Documentation: After the contact is established, the company arranges the documentation for export. As your export service company, CW Freight arranges all the documents, from obtaining export licenses, permits, invoices, and certificates of origin to paperwork related to customs clearance.
- Packaging & shipping: Once all the documents are arranged, it is time for packaging and shipping. At CW Freight, we secure your goods by using high-quality, durable materials. We also find the most cost-effective routes to ship your goods, working closely with our ocean carrier partners to optimize your shipment and minimize the overall export costs.
- Delivery to the final destination: Upon arrival, the goods are delivered to their final destination. At CW Freight, we work closely with our global network of distributors and employ their services to deliver goods to customers.
