What We Handle

End-to-End Export β€” We Manage the Full Journey

Most B2B buyers sourcing from Asia deal with the same pain points: unclear freight costs, missing customs documents, FBA non-compliance on arrival, and suppliers who hand off once goods leave the factory gate. We don't operate that way.

From production completion to delivery at your warehouse or FBA fulfilment centre, we coordinate every logistics touchpoint β€” freight booking, customs clearance documentation, compliance paperwork, and final delivery. You receive a complete document pack with every shipment.

Our 5 US warehouses and 1 Canada warehouse mean we can also offer domestic fulfilment for North American buyers, reducing customs complexity and shortening replenishment cycles for repeat orders.

🚒
Sea Freight β€” Primary Route
Full container (FCL) and less-than-container (LCL) from China to UK, EU, USA, Canada, and globally. 25–35 days to UK/EU from China.
✈️
Air Freight β€” Urgent & Samples
5–10 day transit. Used for samples, urgent restocks, and time-sensitive launches where the premium cost is justified.

Amazon FBA Direct
Factory to FBA fulfilment centre β€” FNSKU labelled, carton marked, and packing list formatted to Amazon standards. UK, EU, and USA.

98.6% On-Time Delivery

Measured across all shipments to 200+ B2B and B2C clients globally. This figure includes sea freight β€” historically the mode most susceptible to port delays and schedule disruption.

We achieve this through proactive freight booking (not reactive), confirmed vessel slots before production completion, and pre-agreed contingency routing for peak season delays.

Incoterms

Which Incoterm Is Right for Your Order?

Incoterms define where cost and risk transfer from seller to buyer. Choosing the right one depends on your logistics capability, customs experience, and preference for control.

EXW β€” Ex Works

Experienced importers

Goods collected from our factory gate. You or your freight forwarder manages everything from that point β€” export clearance, freight, insurance, and import customs. Maximum control, maximum responsibility.

β†’Lowest unit price β€” you handle all freight and customs
β†’Preferred by buyers with established freight forwarder relationships
β†’Requires export licence knowledge
Most Common

FOB β€” Free on Board

Standard B2B

We handle export clearance and delivery to the origin port. Risk transfers to you when goods are loaded onto the vessel. You arrange and pay for ocean freight, insurance, and import customs. Clean division of responsibility.

β†’Most widely used by B2B wholesale buyers globally
β†’Clear risk transfer point β€” loaded on vessel at origin port
β†’Works with buyer's own or recommended freight forwarder

CIF β€” Cost, Insurance & Freight

Simpler for buyers

We pay for freight and insurance to the destination port. Risk transfers at origin port (same as FOB), but you don't need to arrange your own freight β€” we handle it and include the cost in your quotation.

β†’Convenient β€” no need to source your own freight forwarder
β†’Good for first-time importers unfamiliar with freight booking
β†’You still arrange import customs clearance at destination

DDP β€” Delivered Duty Paid

Hands-off buyers

We handle everything β€” freight, insurance, and import duties and taxes β€” all the way to your named destination. You receive cleared, duty-paid goods at your door. Highest total cost, zero logistics complexity for you.

β†’Ideal for buyers who want zero logistics involvement
β†’All duties and taxes included β€” no surprise charges on arrival
β†’Available on request β€” discuss at quotation stage
Not sure which Incoterm suits your situation? Contact us β€” we'll recommend the right approach based on your market, logistics setup, and order volume.
Transit Times

Estimated Freight Transit Times from China

All times are estimated for sea freight from major China ports (Tianjin, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou). Actual transit varies by carrier, routing, and port congestion.

DestinationSea Freight (FCL/LCL)Air FreightNotes
UK (Felixstowe / Southampton)28–35 days5–8 daysPost-Suez routing standard
Germany / Netherlands28–35 days5–8 daysRotterdam / Hamburg

Transit times are estimates only. Add bulk production time (30–60 days) and pre-shipment QC (5–7 days) to calculate your total order-to-delivery timeline.

Documentation

Every Shipment Comes With a Complete Document Pack

Missing or incorrect shipping documentation is one of the most common causes of customs delays, port holds, and additional charges. We prepare all export documentation in-house and have it reviewed before goods are loaded.

For buyers importing to the UK or EU, compliance documentation (CE DoC, REACH, UKCA) is coordinated alongside shipping documents β€” so everything arrives together, not separately weeks later.

USA Buyers

Importing Into the USA β€” What You Need to Know

USA imports carry specific requirements that UK/EU buyers don't face. We've been supplying US buyers for 20+ years β€” here's what we handle on your behalf.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ US Customs & Import Process

β†’
ISF Filing (10+2) β€” Importer Security Filing submitted to US CBP at least 24 hours before vessel loading. We prepare the ISF data and coordinate with your customs broker.
β†’
Customs bond β€” Required for all formal US import entries over $2,500. Continuous or single-entry bond arranged through your customs broker. We can recommend brokers if needed.
β†’
Tariffs β€” Most fitness equipment and pet products from Asia countries carry additional tariffs (7.5%–25% depending on HTS code and country). We flag applicable HTS codes at quotation stage so you can calculate your true landed cost upfront β€” no surprises at the port.
β†’
Country of origin documentation β€” Certificate of origin prepared and included in every US-destined shipment to support customs clearance and tariff classification.

πŸ›οΈ US Product Compliance

β†’
CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) β€” Fitness equipment and pet products sold in US retail must meet applicable CPSC regulations. We coordinate testing to relevant ASTM standards and can provide documentation for CPSC compliance on request.
β†’
ASTM standards β€” ASTM F2118 (resistance bands), ASTM F1749 (fitness equipment general), and applicable pet product standards coordinated through SGS or Bureau Veritas testing.
β†’
California Prop 65 β€” Required warning labelling for products sold in California. Chemical testing and compliant warning labels applied at factory for US retail buyers. Covers rubber compounds, surface coatings, and packaging inks.
β†’
FCC compliance β€” Relevant for any fitness accessories with electronic components (digital weight scales, smart jump ropes, connected accessories).

🏭 5 US Warehouses β€” Domestic Fulfilment

Our US warehouse network enables domestic fulfilment β€” stock arrives once from China, then ships domestically to your customers, retail buyers, or FBA fulfilment centres without repeated international freight cycles.

βœ“West Coast receiving (Los Angeles area) β€” fastest inbound from Asia
βœ“East Coast distribution β€” New York / Mid-Atlantic coverage
βœ“LTL and FTL domestic trucking to your door or retail DC
βœ“Amazon.com FBA direct from US warehouse β€” faster than ocean replenishment
βœ“Duties and tariffs paid once on import

πŸ“¦ Amazon.com vs Amazon.co.uk β€” Key Differences

Amazon.com (USA)
β†’ FNSKU labels required per unit
β†’ Prop 65 warning labels if selling to California
β†’ CPSC / ASTM test reports for restricted products
β†’ Section 301 tariffs included in landed cost
β†’ Direct from China or via US warehouse
Amazon.co.uk / EU
β†’ FNSKU labels required per unit
β†’ CE / UKCA marking required
β†’ REACH compliance documentation
β†’ UK/EU import VAT and duties apply
β†’ UK Responsible Person required
Tariff Note

Most fitness equipment imported from Asia currently carries tariffs of 7.5%–25% depending on product HTS code. This is payable by the US importer on arrival and is separate from our product price. We always confirm applicable HTS codes and indicative tariff rates at quotation stage so you can calculate accurate landed costs before committing to an order.

Common Questions

Logistics FAQs

What Incoterms do you offer?
We work with EXW (Ex Works), FOB (Free on Board), CIF (Cost, Insurance & Freight), and DDP (Delivered Duty Paid). FOB is the most common for B2B buyers. The right Incoterm depends on your logistics capability and preference β€” we discuss and agree this at order stage.
How long does sea freight take to the UK or EU?
Sea freight from China to UK and EU ports typically takes 28–35 days. Add bulk production time (30–60 days) and pre-shipment QC (5–7 days) for the total order-to-delivery timeline β€” typically 90–110 days for a UK/EU buyer. USA West Coast is faster at 14–20 days sea freight.
Can you ship directly to Amazon FBA warehouses?
Yes. We handle FBA-compliant packaging at the factory β€” FNSKU label application, polybag requirements, carton marking, and packing lists formatted to Amazon standards. We ship directly to FBA fulfilment centres in the UK, EU, USA and worldwide.
What shipping documents do I receive?
Standard on every shipment: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin, pre-shipment QC report, and export declaration. For UK/EU orders: CE Declaration of Conformity and REACH certificate as standard. Fumigation certificate, Prop 65, and SEDEX docs available on request.
Do you have warehouses in the USA?
Yes β€” 5 warehouses across the USA and 1 in Canada for domestic fulfilment. This reduces customs complexity and shortens replenishment cycles for North American buyers. We also maintain 1 warehouse in China for consolidation and pre-export staging.
Can I use my own freight forwarder?
Yes. Under FOB or EXW terms, you are free to use your own freight forwarder. We provide all documentation required.
Are freight costs included in your pricing?
Under FOB, freight costs are your responsibility and paid directly to your freight forwarder. Under CIF or DDP, freight and relevant costs are included in our quotation. All costs are disclosed upfront at quotation stage.
