International Freight

Global forwarding.
American accountability.

Air, ocean and coordinated inland transportation managed as one connected shipment from origin instruction through final delivery.

International forwarding

The route is only one part of the shipment.

US Trade manages international freight as a connected operating file: routing, capacity, origin coordination, export documents, customs, destination handling and final delivery.

That approach gives importers, exporters and government customers one accountable partner instead of a chain of disconnected vendors.

Priority air execution

Speed only matters when the shipment stays controlled.

Air freight is coordinated around cargo readiness, screening, cutoffs, documents, uplift and destination release—not just flight availability.

Ocean execution
