Laufer Group International

Laufer Group International Ltd. has established a complete ocean logistics and service platform through which we provide our customers improved shipping flexibility, immediate decision-making empowerment, and enhanced operational control. To help customize a service package for each customer, we provide the following services:

Pre-Alert Booking Notifications: This allows our customers greater control over departure dates to match production cycles or arrival times to meet inventory and local distribution requirements. With this tool, you can select services, change routings, and delay or expedite shipments, depending upon your specific transportation and logistics needs.

Choices Program^SM: By integrating multiple service choices in each Booking Notification, this powerful supply chain management tool provides resources to manage service and cost flexibility on an individual shipment level, regardless of origin. Routing decisions can now be made easily on a per Booking, per Purchase Order basis with predetermined options - all in a matter of seconds.

Multiple Carrier Services: Laufer Group International moves significant volumes in the major global trade lanes.
To both support this volume and offer unparalleled service flexibility and price options to our customers, we contract directly with multiple global and niche carriers. This enables us to structure client-specific shipping programs to satisfy unique seasonal pricing, volume, or transit requirements throughout the year. In addition, having strong carrier partnerships enables us to minimize our customers' exposure to risk by having the tools and market strength to navigate through market and supply chain disruptions.

Tracking and Visibility: Laufer Group offers much more than a simple tracking portal at Laufer.com - it is a management tool enabling complete shipment visibility from booking conception to delivery confirmation, and much more in between:

P.O. and SKU-level visibility
Container Status Summary
Door Delivery Confirmations and Auto-Alerts
Hot Shipment Status

Detention Free Time Management Program
Booking Summary Visibility
Rail Departure and Updated ETA
Reporting Tools
Drop-shipment Visibility Program

Contract Management: Laufer Group also works with companies who sign their own carrier service contracts but want to utilize our full suite of visibility and management tools. We simply incorporate the contract into our program, and make the management of that contract seamless and efficient.
