// LOGISTICS & CUSTOMS
In the world of maintenance, repair and operations, logistics and customs is a fundamental part of the supply chain. Whether you’re a manufacturer or end user, moving products between countries comes with a range of potential headaches and needing to manage many small deliveries is ineffective, costly and involves too many parties. It also exposes your product to more chances of being lost or damaged en-route.
Thankfully V-LINE is experienced in ensuring your deliveries reach their destination as easily and cost-effectively as possible. We achieve this by working with highly experienced, internationally-operating forwarding service providers which ensures streamlining a large part of the logistics process. This brings the number of small deliveries down by up to 80% and sees a reduction in damaged goods by up to 98%.
