In the words of David Koo, from Gyro Logistics, “With this new ecommerce initiative, we aim to boost our visibility, provide a better service to our customers and partners, and of course augment our business”.

In order to facilitate the use of this new service to their clients, they have created an introductory guide to explain the basic flow process to their clients on how to use Amazon FBA. Mr. Koo further explains that: “The first thing our clients will need to do is to check their Amazon account. In case they have an Amazon USA or Canada account then it should be upgraded to North America Unified Account for Mexico. Then, they would need to follow the steps provided below”:

1. Send us the details of the cargo, including the HST code, CIF value, commodity detail, weight, and dimension. They would need to check if a special permit is required by Mexican Authorities.
2. We will summarise the estimated cost, including import duty, VAT, customs and other local fees.
3. Create a FBA shipment account on Amazon MX and apply the FBA label.
4. Ship it to us along with the Amazon FBA order slip (MBL consigned to Gyro and HBL consigned to Amazon FBA).
5. When the cargo reaches the port of Mexico, we will inspect it for the HST code verification
6. Send us the total expense to cover all the costs.
7. We will import it under our own import permit.
8. Create an Amazon shipping slip and forward it to us.
9. Finally, we will ship your cargo to the FBA center in Mexico.

Congratulations to Gyro Logistics on their new venture!

Our member in Melbourne became a part of Australian Trusted Traders on the 26th of December, 2017 and within just 5 months they also received the much-coveted Certificate and Dome.

This is a very significant achievement which is going to boost their business to a great extent and allow them certain special benefits with the Australian Customs which cannot be obtained by other freight forwarders of the country.

In the words of Stephen Mott, Managing Director of Braywin (Vic) Pty Ltd, “Receiving the Trusted Traders Certificate and Dome had been a substantial achievement for our company especially because of the fact that not many logistics service providers in Australia are Trusted Traders”.

“We have signed all our clients up to be Australian Traders so that they can get all the benefits as well”. Stephen continued.

Conqueror congratulates Braywin (Vic) Pty Ltd for garnering this prestigious certificate!

Conqueror Dallas also upgrades their truck fleet and expands their office staff to better handle their growing client base

1 Trade Logistics relocates to a 25,000 SF facility at 1215 Metroplace Dr, Suite 400, DFW Airport, thereby expanding their warehousing capabilities substantially.

The 579s improve reliability, fuel efficiency, and enhance driver productivity.

Now we can promptly ship to domestic and international destinations.” Sol Arango, Co-Founder and President of CQR Dallas has commented that “It’s important – as a company – to keep growing, to keep providing improved opportunities for both our clients and our employees. The new facility brings new potential for warehousing, staff, and clients. We’re excited to continue to make it happen in bigger and better ways.”
