Frequently asked questions
What is an outsourced trade department?
It means 36T operates as your import and export department and coordinates suppliers, freight, customs and compliance for you.
How is it different from hiring separate providers?
With separate providers you coordinate each one. With an outsourced department, 36T coordinates suppliers, freight, customs and compliance and is accountable for the whole operation.
Will I have a dedicated contact?
Yes. An assigned account executive centralizes communication and coordination and keeps you posted at every stage.
How does it start?
With business validation, the proposal, onboarding and your document file. Then we assign your account executive and plan your operation.
