Spring stock arrives in a rush, and every entry raised after arrival adds days of storage.
Our brokers classified the range once, then pre-lodged each entry from the supplier’s documents before arrival, using the retailer’s duty deferment account.
Boxes released at discharge through the season, with no customs holds on cleared cargo.
