International Logistics Coordination
Overview
International shipping is where most sourcing projects break down. Delays, incomplete documentation, hidden fees, and misaligned expectations between factories and freight providers can erase any cost savings gained during production.
S&L Global provides proactive logistics coordination to ensure your products move smoothly from factory floor to final U.S. delivery—on time, compliant, and without unnecessary surprises.
What This Service Covers
Full oversight of overseas freight movement, including:
Freight quote comparison (air, ocean, and express)
Carrier and forwarder alignment
Export documentation review
Packaging, labeling, and carton verification
Incoterms guidance (EXW, FOB, CIF, DDP, etc.)
Shipment scheduling and transit tracking
Port arrival monitoring
Final delivery coordination
We act as your single point of accountability—reducing miscommunication between factories, forwarders, and brokers.
Why This Matters
Leaving logistics entirely to factories or freight forwarders often leads to:
Inflated freight costs
Incorrect or unclear Incoterms
Missing export paperwork
U.S. customs issues
Port delays or demurrage fees
Limited visibility during transit
S&L Global protects you from these risks by managing logistics proactively—not reactively.
