China freight forwarding workflow

How it works

From factory floor to delivered cargo.

We turn a fragmented import process into one coordinated workflow, with clear checkpoints from supplier pickup through to customs and delivery.

01

Collection and supplier coordination

We arrange pickup from your suppliers, confirm cargo details and align factory handover with your shipping plan.

02

Warehousing, QC and consolidation

Goods can be received, checked, consolidated and prepared for export from China-side logistics hubs.

03

Export, freight and tracking

We prepare documentation, book the selected route and keep the shipment visible through the international transit stage.

04

Customs and final delivery

Import clearance, duties route planning and final-mile delivery are coordinated for your warehouse, customer site or Amazon FBA.

Route strategy

Choose the right mode for your business goal.

Not every shipment needs the fastest route. We help match cost, urgency, volume, risk and stock availability to the correct service level.

Sea Freight

Best for FCL, LCL and larger volume cargo where landed cost is the main priority.

Rail Freight

A balanced option for China to Europe routes when sea is too slow and air is too expensive.

Air Freight

For urgent replenishment, product launches, lightweight cargo and high-value stock.

Import support

More than freight booking.

Our value sits in the operational detail around the shipment: supplier communication, paperwork, cargo preparation and route control.

Private Label and Sourcing Support

Coordinate supplier handover, product checks and shipment readiness before cargo leaves China.

KYC and Supplier Reliability

Reduce risk before production and shipment by checking supplier details and supporting reliable commercial handovers.

DDP / DAP / FOB Planning

Choose the right Incoterms and delivery model for your control level, tax exposure and operational needs.

Amazon FBA and B2B Delivery

Prepare carton handling, labels and final-mile requirements for marketplace or warehouse delivery.
