How does one go about finding infomation regarding warehouses worldwide?
Question
Looking into ‘HUBS’ worldwide or some form of warehousing that can be done over the internet with some sort of tracking and mapping for distribution.
Answer
Dear Rosa,
Thanks for reaching out onto the Open to Export forum. I would suggest networking with your vendors, suppliers and contacts to see if they are familiar or have worked with a warehousing company that may have an international presence. You may have to complete your own research to determine what a priority is for you including location, size, costs, taxes, VAT, just to name a few topics.
You may want to contact your freight forwarder who may have some information or may already have a warehousing option in place although here is the link to the trade association that represents freight forwarding and logistics firms. http://www.fiata.com/index.php?id=2
Hope this helps.
