Freight & Logistics Support

Even with great suppliers, getting products from Point A to Point B efficiently is a major undertaking. Our Freight & Logistics Support service covers all aspects of moving your goods, whether internationally or domestically, so that logistics is one less worry for you.

What we do

We act as your logistics coordinator, handling shipping arrangements, carrier negotiations, customs clearance, and delivery to your warehouse (or even direct to your customers in some cases). With expertise in freight forwarding, we ensure that products reach you in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Shipping Mode & Carrier Selection

We determine the best shipping mode for your needs – air freight for urgent shipments, sea freight for cost savings on bulk orders, or land/trucking for regional transport. Our team compares rates among trusted carriers and freight forwarders, securing you favorable contracts and transit times.

Customs & Documentation

Cross-border shipments come with paperwork (commercial invoices, bills of lading, customs declarations). We prepare and review all necessary documents to comply with import/export laws. Our specialists navigate customs regulations and duties, reducing the risk of delays at ports. Whether it’s clearing a container through U.S. Customs or obtaining CE certification for EU, we’ve got it covered.

Tracking & Visibility

We provide end-to-end tracking of your shipments. You’ll receive updates when goods depart the factory, clear customs, and arrive at the destination port. Our systems allow for real-time visibility, so you always know where your inventory is.

Problem Resolution

If any logistic issue arises (e.g., port congestion, missed connections, etc.), we intervene immediately. We’ll work with carriers to reroute or expedite, and communicate with you proactively. Our goal is a seamless supply chain – if something unexpected happens in transit, we handle it behind the scenes.

Benefit

By entrusting logistics to GP Consulting, you benefit from our industry relationships and expertise in supply chain management. We often achieve lower shipping rates for clients due to bulk negotiation and ensure you avoid costly mistakes (like using the wrong Incoterms or mis-declaring goods). Ultimately, products arrive on schedule and on budget, which keeps your downstream operations running smoothly. (As one of our clients noted, “we haven’t missed a single delivery timeline” thanks to our logistics support – reinforcing the reliability we provide.)
