Among the many challenges brought about by Brexit to various businesses in the UK, freight forwarders are working their way through declaration dues with limited resources as there are insufficient brokers available to support them.
To address these challenges, offshoring is one of the viable solutions available for freight forwarders to ponder upon. Offshore Business Processing (OBP), an Australian BPO firm with operations in the Philippines and a global reach, delivers exceptional support for businesses of any size in any industry, including freight forwarding, logistics, and transportation. OBP provides a wide range of services that are flexible to fit unique business requirements.
Here’s how offshoring through OBP can help mitigate risks and support your business journey through the new trading policies brought about by Brexit:
UK traders will now require customs specialists for customs-related work like declaration which is highly important in the freight forwarding industry and it is a part of the business that needs specific expertise. Aside from being a BPO industry leader, Offshore Business Processing is deeply rooted in the freight forwarding industry and has full knowledge and understanding of how logistics and transportation work. Our Licensed Customs Brokers and Import and Export Data Entry Specialists are trained on international standards, making them flexible to manage foreign accounts.
Our industry experts are accustomed to working in a dynamic environment, including shifting operational hours to complement particular business procedures and work culture.
The average salary in the UK for customs is GBP30,000 which is approximately USD42,000. For a licensed customs broker in the Philippines, the cost is $19,800 a year including all costs which is a saving of over 50%
As the number of import and export declarations increases, local teams will not be able to work through their dues in a pressuring time frame especially with manpower and resource constraints. Offshoring allows them to expand their capabilities and complete more tasks at hand with additional resources or solutions, for a minimal cost.
Let OBP help you assess your current business operations so we can discuss your options in taking the next step as your company transitions to the new trading system.
Schedule a call with us and our team of experts will be happy to help you transform your business.
