Our Services
Importation
Supcart helps businesses and entrepreneurs to transfer their raw materials and items from China to the Philippines. It becomes easier on their end as we are the ones who process all the transit flow and the necessary documents. We are currently receiving one hundred twenty (120) container trucks for sea freight and thirty (30) tons of air cargo a month, full of imported cargos and items. With the flexible and diverse industries the businesses have, we cater two (2) freight options available for our clients’ importation needs.
Product Sourcing and Supply
Air cargo is our fastest way of freight forwarding. The shipment only takes 2 to 5 days estimated time of arrival. This service is most valuable to businesses with high regard for time efficiency. Our China warehouse in Guangzhou is receiving items and cargo daily. It will all ship through air freight to our Pasig Warehouse. Each good is calculated through its kilogram to determine the specific rates stated to the clients. Starting from that, we’ll carry out the process of transportation from China to our warehouses here in the Philippines. As it arrives, it’s now ready to be delivered to our Client’s front door!
Fulfillment and warehousing
One of our clients' dilemmas is their storage spacing. As their partner in this business journey, we solved their problem! We cater warehousing for business entities in which we store and manage inventory of their items and boxes. Aside from that, our clients do not need to deal with their own customers’ orders as we fulfill it for them. We prepare the items from sourcing the items, shipping, customs clearance, warehousing, packaging or sorting, dispatching, until the delivery.
