SOME HARD FACTS ABOUT FOREIGN TRADE

Before you expatriate your business, take time to assess the potential risks involved when anyone but a dedicated U.S. manufacturer handles your products.

TIME - Consider the many hours your cargo will spend on container ships, in transit, and potentially in customs from remotely based, foreign production facilities. JohnPac ships all in-stock items within 24 hours. Customized orders are processed immediately upon arrival, and we offer to warehouse customized products. In business, lost time is lost money.

HIDDEN COSTS - When production orders go overseas, they're subject to fluctuating foreign exchange rates. The job you pay X for today will cost Y tomorrow. It's a gamble, a gamble businesses often lose.

LOSS - Approximately 2,000 to 10,000 containers fall of ships each year; although seemingly insignificant, each container (typically 20'-40' long x 8' high) holds up to millions of small parts. The loss could easily shut down your entire manufacturing line or cause something that's one of a kind to be lost at sea - you miss your market opportunity and all revenue, not to mention the administrative nightmares you'll encounter as you try to unravel the debacle with shipping agents. JohnPac's own fleet delivers our goods free of charge to anywhere from Mobile to South Texas. Deliveries outside the South are made promptly and priced fairly. We ensure your packaging products arrive on time, in full to your precise specifications.
