Since 1984, we manage the critical handoffs across ports, customs stations, and inland corridors that eliminate clearance bottlenecks and protect you from demurrage.
Before the feeder vessel even enters the Karnaphuli river channel or drops anchor at Chittagong Port Outer Anchorage, our Agrabad operations team has pre-audited the import general manifest (IGM), coordinated berthing priority with shipping lines, and secured quayside handling slots.
Customs bottlenecks cost businesses millions in port demurrage and shipping line detention fees. As authorized customs brokers licensed since 1984 and incorporated in 1991, we conduct rigorous pre-assessments of commercial invoices, packing lists, and statutory regulatory orders (SRO) to ensure rapid electronic assessment.
Customs release is only half the journey. For manufacturers, apparel exporters, and project developers, freight must move without delay. We mobilize bonded multi-axle trailers and container block trains to transit shipments under intact customs seals directly to EPZ export processing zones and factory gates.
When production schedules demand overnight fabric swatches, high-tech components, or urgent buyer air shipments, our air freight division at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC) takes command. We ensure zero tarmac hold-ups and complete document surrender to your logistics director.
