Expert Customs brokers (broking), freight forwarding or simply forwarders are companies (either run by an individual or a group), professionally known as NVOCC (or “non-vessel operating common carrier”) that help other commerce and manufacturing companies trade goods by contracting carriers to execute such activities in the best possible manner there is. And while the forwarding company doesn’t conduct the action of moving the cargo by themselves, they usually gather information, act as mediators (between two commerce companies) and take the whole responsibility for transporting said cargo (agriculture raw products, electronic equipment, various apparel) from the point of arriving to the point of their final distributing location (meanwhile acting as a supply chain management partners). Most importantly, customs brokers overlook international shipment arrivals while facilitating cargo transport – hence their importance in the commerce business is often overlooked by other individuals and organizations. 

From the observing perspective of things, customs brokers forwarding is neither old, nor a new business industry; it’s rather a model jump-started by Thomas Meadows Lt. in London in 1836, and since its inception it has become the standard structure which other forwarding companies build their foundations on and govern by its principles. However, with technological improvements constantly taking place and changing the societal paradigm of ‘conducting businesses’, cargo forwarding strives toward becoming a ‘paperless’ facilitator, and more often than not, said approach is being greenlit by all leading expert customs brokers companies, such as Stile Associates and others. 

Each and every country works under a set of rules which differs from one another when it comes to forwarding goods and materials: USA companies must possess a registration within “U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s” chambers;UK based freight forwarders are often (but not all) members of the “British International Freight Association”;Ireland’s forwarders must have a freight forwarding diploma issued by FIATA;Transport Canada and the “Canadian Border Services Agency” are responsible for most cargo forwarding issuesin the country.A typical customs brokers (or brokerage) company is well aware of these regulations and does everything in its power in order to satisfy the client’s interests, however broad they may happen to be. Furthermore, all concerns regarding export and import of goodsare being closely monitored bythese companies, thus alleviatingandabsorbing the everyday stress of various customer complaints, learning all international rules regarding freight forwarding andarranging paperwork per all regulations. 

Previously we mentioned how technology has driven businesses to other means, such as paperless goods transactions and regulations – so it becomes obvious how time paradigms and business conducts are constantly battling (or supplementing each other) with the progress oftechnology. As far as researching goes, companies give their best to try and stay longer in the game -developing internal communication networks, improving their existing infrastructure and paving roads toward faster and safer commerce transactions, with proper following of needed requirements. Staying on top of the development process proves as the best wayto provide superior service to clientsby far, regardless of customs broker’s choice in the matter.
