Overview
Order “Managing Forwarders, Brokers & Carriers” today for a thorough trade resource. Once your company has made the sale or the purchase, it must make certain that merchandise conforming to the terms of the contract is sent to, and arrives at, the point at which the seller’s responsibility for delivery is completed and the buyer’s responsibility for the merchandise commences. A firm’s ability to compete in the international marketplace is associated with its strong logistics performance. According to the World Economic Forum:
“Supply chains are becoming increasingly essential across industries and sectors, as businesses become more globalized and manufacturing facilities and customer bases are more spread out across the world. Technological advances have also led to greater cost efficiencies and reduced transport time, but many challenges and risks remain to be resolved if firms are to meet the needs of their customers for ever-increasing speed and flexibility.”
