Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ)
As your global business grows, Hellmann's Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) program can support your company's supply chain. Our solution begins with a dedicated, knowledgeable staff experienced in implementing Free Trade Zones (FTZs), as well as management, inventory control, and warehousing. We help large and small customers and partners expand their business profile while managing costs and improving compliance.
The benefits of an FTZ are customs deferral, reduction of documentation costs, mixing or freighting, repackaging, destruction, etc. Our Warehouse Management Software (WMS) can be fully integrated with our business partners. Coordinated solutions for customs brokerage, transport, and contract logistics can further increase the value of an FTZ solution.
