Routes
We're a Chinese freight forwarder operating from the origin, where your goods are made and loaded. Panama is the hemisphere's great logistics hub: the Canal and the Colón Free Zone —the largest free zone in the Americas— make it a gateway and redistribution centre for the whole region. We handle your shipment end to end —transport, documentation and customs—, with the prices you only get by working from the origin itself.
You work with the people at the port of departure in China, not a middleman in Panama that subcontracts. Fewer links, better price.
The largest free zone in the hemisphere lets you store, consolidate and re-export Chinese cargo without entering the local tax regime until needed. We know how it works and put it to use for you.
Panama connects both oceans via the Canal. It's the ideal point to distribute to Central America, the Caribbean and northern South America from a single place.
We work in writing and assist you in Spanish, as well as English, the common standard in international shipping. Every detail stays clear and documented, no language barrier with the origin.
The best point depends on whether your cargo stays in Panama, passes through the Free Zone or is redistributed. Panama has large terminals on both oceans. We pick what connects best.
The great Pacific-side terminal, next to the Canal's southern entrance and Panama City. The main gateway for Asian cargo.
The great Caribbean-side complex (Cristóbal, Manzanillo, Colón Container Terminal), next to the Colón Free Zone. A transhipment and redistribution core for the Caribbean.
The largest free zone in the Americas: storage, consolidation and re-export without entering the local tax regime until clearance for consumption. Key to distributing across the region.
A modern Pacific-side terminal, an alternative to Balboa, well connected to the country's logistics network.
We also operate with other Panamanian points: Panama City (airport Tocumen PTY) · Manzanillo · Cristóbal
The most cost-effective option. FCL (full container) or LCL (groupage) depending on your volume, to Balboa (Pacific) or Colón (Atlantic). Ideal for volume and for redistributing via the Free Zone.
For urgent or high-value cargo, via Tocumen (PTY), the region's great air hub. Fast and tracked in real time.
We handle everything, including import duties and ITBMS, and deliver to your address. You just receive the goods.
We take care of clearance. Panama has one feature that makes it unique: the Colón Free Zone, where goods can enter, be stored and re-exported without paying the local tax as long as they're not cleared for consumption in the country. If the goods do enter the Panamanian market, the ITBMS (VAT) of 7% is paid, calculated on the customs value plus duty, in addition to whatever duty applies to the product. Clearance is processed with the National Customs Authority. We make sure to choose the regime that suits you best —definitive import or transit via the Free Zone— and coordinate clearance at destination, so your cargo enters without surprises.
