Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ)

Leverage Cost Efficiencies With Foreign Trade Zone

Global Trade Logistics Group is an Upstate area Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) warehousing solution for commercial international companies looking to store and distribute goods throughout the US. FTZs are secure areas that are outside of US Customs and Border Protection’s borders. These zones allow for receipt and export of foreign goods without being subject to immediate customs duties or taxes, lowering costs for our international customers.

Benefits of utilizing a Foreign Trade Zone:

Defer Costs

Delay or altogether elimination of duties, inventory taxes, and/or inverted tariffs. These lower costs actually help US companies grow by not being as heavily penalized for importing foreign parts. Using an FTZ also gives US manufacturers more time to finalize products utilizing global parts for ultimate sale in the US or to export finalized products.

Inspection Before Entering

Many companies or distributors utilize FTZs as a holding zone to inspect products before transporting them throughout the US. Doing so cuts down on immediate costs for the products to enter the US market, not costing the company until the products are moved out of the FTZ.

24/7 Transload Services

If your company is important materials or products, we offer transload services. We service the ports of Inland SC, Charleston & Savannah, offering unloading, storage, and reload services.

Our close proximity to the South Carolina Inland Port of Greer, Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport, and Interstate 85 makes our Greer, SC warehouse an ideal location for companies looking to find a reputable and knowledgeable Foreign Trade Zone solution & distribution partner for US market entry or exit.
