International Forwarding
Whether it is assistance in obtaining an export license,
or negotiating a complex letter of credit, or perhaps meeting a particular
consular requirement, our expert staff can assist with all aspects
of documentation involved in moving merchandise from production line to
any destination world-wide. Drop shipments of foreign origin to other
foreign destination are not problem.
Immediate issue of certified shipping documentation is
a priority for our traffic department who monitor the progress and status
of consignments; any changes that could affect intact or timely delivery
are immediately relayed to our clients.
Air Freight & Charter
Our Air Freight Division arranges for the immediate dispatch
of urgent cargoes to overseas destinations; upon arrival, our
world-wide network of agents provide prompt transfer, customs clearance
and delivery of priority freight.
Air Freight Consolidation
When deadlines permit, we can consolidate you consignments
giving the opportunity to make substantial savings over direct movement,
with minimal time penalty.

Mach 2 provides LCL freight movements to most foreign
ports thereby eliminating the need to deal with several different carriers
by providing just a single party responsible for the entire movement.
Significant savings are often achieved without sacrificing delivery time.

ultimate consignee. We keep abreast of Customs and Department of
Trade regulations to ensure correct classification of goods in compliance
with applicable laws.

requirements, from the often complicated details of marine policies
to more general transportation cover.

Utilising our own or designated warehouses at most locations
we can facilitate storage, breakbulk and transloading of inbound,
domestic and export freight. We can also provide tailored fulfillment services for targeted goods distribution. We

warehouses operate within the MCA's Guidelines on Good Distribution Practice for
Medicinal Products. H M Customs ERTS 'bonded' facilities
enhance our ability to ensure total control of inbound freight.

The small parcel sector plays an increasingly vital part
in today's global markets. The optimum speed of dedicated couriers
can prove invaluable in certain situations. Door-to-door, hand
carried, next-flight out... whatever your particular requirements,
we can deliver.

special packing requirements. We can arrange on-site services for
relocation of office or home, air freight packing in strict accordance

Tailored Solutions
At Mach 2 we enjoy a challenge; we not only handle
routine shipments, but also take pride in our ability to manage projects
that require special action and innovative thinking. We believe our
flexibility and resources pay dividends in solving logistical problems
and our clients agree.
We have proven success in the field of project management.
Our level of experience can prove beneficial at the planning stages of
a project. A call to us early on can save a lot of time, money
and effort, and keep stress levels to a minimum. Our adaptable
staff are on hand to make certain that all runs smoothly, whatever
the situation.
One of our most challenging clients is a major international
bank for whom we have managed a number of large scale projects. We relocated an entire
data centre floor from the New York City skyscraper that housed
it to a new site in London. Another challenge was relocating a purpose-built
three-story data centre from Brussels to London, whilst maintaining
full operational functionality. Part of our solution was the provision
of dedicated on board couriers three times a week for four months. For the
same client we also assist with the project movement of their equipment for new
offices in Eastern Europe and Africa.
In the centennial year of the Hotel Ritz in Madrid we
organised the shipping of an extremely rare Hispano Suiza Alfonso XIV from
Western Australia via London to Madrid to participate in the celebratory
Hotel Ritz Rally, and exclusive event for owners of these highly-prized
historic vintage sports cars.
For a major
pharmaceutical client, we recently arranged the project movement of a fragile
pharmaceutical processing facility to India including project delivery on
site.

the global pharmaceutical supply chain and cool chain specialists.

In addition, as a FORCE
