Multiple Country Consolidation Programs

The consolidation programs offered by Scarbrough International brings reliability, security and speed to the forefront of globalized supply chains.

The essence of commanding any international supply chain from origin port to door destinations is the accessibility and visibility of the shipment. with Scarbrough's depth in partnerships we are able to reduce the constraints inherent in the formidable LCL vacuum that usually allows freight to end up in whoknowswhereville.

Material handling is major consideration for the logistics industries. CELDi is an organization that provides some of the best academics in the form of consultants that are hired by companies such as Ford Motor Company, John Deere, Coca Cola, Kraft Foods and Lockheed Martin Corp. to resolve constraints such as those involving shipment logistics. These large companies recognize the value in reducing the number of constraints or hands that effect their supply chain. Scarbrough's solution to the LCL debacle is exactly this, we reduce the number of times the freight is handled by different parties.

The typical LCL shipment is handled by three and sometimes four unassociated parties. Our shipments are handled by our tenured partners and us. Two! two hands on the freight. Firstly our trusted partner and then Scarbrough. This reduces pilferage and inconsistency.

The benefits are therefore reliability, security and speed. We optimize visibility and optionality by reducing the process to a single handler operation.
