The Annual General Meeting of the Premier Cargo Alliance (PCA), a worldwide logistics network for independent international freight forwarders, held February 28 – March 2 in Miami, Florida was the place to be for international logistics providers – and we were in the center of the action.

Chris Barnard, Vice President – Projects & Market Development, Cathy Fong, Manager – Freight Pricing and Lisa Fertita – General Manager, Freight Services Universal Logistics USA, had no fewer than 25 one-on-one meetings with some of the most important players in the global trade sector.  The goal was to establish new relationships that will allow our Buffalo, New York office to build on its existing success with global clients.

“This was all about expanding our partner network for our U.S. operation by establishing new business relationships,” explained Ms. Fertita.

Quick Tip #58
Be prepared for customs penalties and fines under AMPS

Never assume that the absence of an audit means you will never be audited.  Penalties under AMPS (Administrative Monetary Penalty System) can be applied at the border at time of import (or export) and also post audit.
