How freight forwarders can take advantage of the growth in cross-border ecommerce
On-demand
Consumers are increasingly confident buying online from other countries, driving unprecedented international ecommerce growth. As a result, more goods flowing in the cross-border ecommerce supply chain means fewer goods in the traditional B2B supply chain.
Companies selling internationally are turning to their supply chain partners for cross-border ecommerce fulfilment support. This provides an opportunity for those importing goods into the US if they can handle higher filings, data, and consignment volumes at the speed of ecommerce.
In this short webinar, our panel of industry experts will discuss the opportunities in international ecommerce, and how you can capitalize on the growth to expand services, increase revenue, and improve profitability.
You'll also learn:
- The key trends and markets powering the growth of cross-border ecommerce in the US and around the world.
- How to navigate complex US customs and security regulations to avoid infringements that put orders at risk.
- Best practices and tips for efficiently managing each step of the cross-border ecommerce supply chain.
