Consumers have ever higher expectations of the cross-border online shopping experience and the cross-border eCommerce logistics experience. CCL has restructured around eCommerce and invested in supporting technology solutions. It has opened up a wealth of eCommerce opportunities to traditional freight forwarders, consolidators, mail handlers and eRetailers.
CCL is one of the market leaders offering specialised gateway logistics solutions via air, sea, road, and railway for goods imported into the UK to be delivered into Amazon FBA warehouses across the country. Our customers range from cross-border logistics companies to Amazon sellers and suppliers. Empowered by our digitalised system, we offer customs clearance and delivery services while providing full tracking information to our customers.
Based near London Heathrow Airport, our ETSF facility handles hundreds, and sometimes thousands, of FBA boxes on a daily basis for our clients. We dispatch them through our distribution partners the same day for final mile delivery to the Amazon FBA centers within the UK. Additionally, we have our own CARP account, which allows us to make delivery bookings directly with Amazon. This means we won't hassle you for a delivery booking, and all we'll require is the Amazon ID number and FBA number.
At CCL, we have experience dealing with HMRC in regards to goods that are under investigation. We understand HMRC's customs expectations and the type of inquiries they may have regarding inspected goods.
As cross-border experts, our highly trained and experienced consultants can recommend the optimum global routes for your sold items. Utilising our digitalised system, we offer data-driven customs clearance at our own ETSF, compliance checks, HS code classification, bespoke reporting, and reverse logistics for B2C shipments imported into or exported out of the UK.
For importing B2C shipments, we also provide DDU (DAP) service via Customs ePay, our in-house developed payment collection system, which offers an exclusive solution for our customers when shipping high-value goods. Meanwhile, we collaborate with UK carriers such as Royal Mail, DPD, Evri, and Yodel to offer the most suitable last-mile delivery solutions to our customers, ranging from start-ups to large multinational companies.
CCL can handle customs clearance and logistics for all types of UK imports, whether it's sea freight containers, airfreight, road freight, or rail freight from anywhere in the world. Additionally, CCL is experienced in handling exports from the UK to European and other countries. As an approved agent by BIFA and IATA, we have established strong partnerships with the most reliable agents all over the world to offer you the best shipping solutions. We've handled a variety of goods ranging from high-end furniture and kitchen accessories to electronic equipment, cosmetics, and fragrance.
Considering the challenges our clients come across in reverse logistics, we offer the value-added service of cross-border returns and duty drawbacks. This means you can use CCL's warehouse as your return address, and you have the additional benefit of recovering the VAT and duty paid at import from HMRC.
