What is Ocean 321?
Are you an entrepreneur with a crowdfunding campaign that you’re ready to get up and running? If so, you may be wondering what the Ocean 321 solution is and how it can help you. To put it simply, it’s a convenient and simple end-to-end solution that combines the cost of freight service and last mile courier. With Ocean 321, your orders can move from the factory to a nearby fulfillment center for pick and pack, to then be transported and delivered quickly and affordably. With Section 321 clearance, any parcel under $800 will be duty-free so there won’t be any nasty surprises or extra fees.
How It Works
- Orders are moved from the factory to a fulfillment center where they are picked and packed
- The goods are then moved to port and sent to the US via ocean freight
- Once they reach the US, they will be cleared under Section 321 clearance by a customs broker
- Finally, the last mile courier will then be handed the goods and will deliver them to backers
Note: If a shipping label was to expire while on the water, packages would then go through a cross-docking process at a nearby partner warehouse so a new label can be added.
