Maritime Transportation
The policies of Argentina Customs (AFIP) are often changing, the approval process for import licenses (SIRA/SEDI) is strict, and high-profit products are prone to being detained at customs.
The shipping voyage is long by sea and the air transportation capacity is tight, resulting in slow customs clearance upon arrival, and sellers may miss the sales peak season.
The traditional warehouses have a low level of digitalization, with high rates of misdelivery and undelivered items, and lack of exclusive delivery services for Mercado Libre's Full warehouse.
The strict foreign exchange control leads to extremely complicated procedures for foreign exchange settlement and freight payment.
WMS (Warehouse Management System) integrates with e-commerce APIs to enable intelligent inventory dashboards and automatic order generation.
Industrial-grade PDA handheld terminals are configured for warehouses, and DWS integrated measuring machines for precise inventory management; Global GPS trackers and opening alarm devices are equipped for containers to ensure asset security.
Goods are received at the domestic warehouse. A professional team conducts pre-audit of the documents to avoid risks related to product categories and intellectual property.
Sea freight by container or full container, or air freight through dedicated routes, direct shipping or precise transshipment.
After the goods arrive at the port, the local self-operated customs clearance team in Argentina uses compliant channels to complete the customs clearance process quickly.
After the goods are stored, they are unpacked, sorted, counted, and re-packaged according to e-commerce standards with new labels.
Deliver to the Full warehouse of Megacorp or the self-owned local warehouse; large-scale wholesale goods are directly delivered by truck to local customers.
The system returns the signed receipt Pod, generates a clear statement, and supports compliant cross-border settlement.
From picking up goods at the Chinese factory to final delivery in Argentina, all processes are handled through a single window, eliminating the need for multiple communications.
For high-profit, non-standard products such as 3C accessories and new energy products, we offer 1-on-1 compliant customs clearance and logistics customization solutions.
With a 5-year presence in Latin America, handling over 800 containers annually, we have our own overseas warehouses and strong local premium customs clearance capabilities, ensuring a high clearance rate.
By relying on digital systems, we can reduce the error rate of shipments in overseas warehouses and the storage fees, avoid the risk of customs fines, and lower hidden costs.
A Chinese 3C and new energy seller was expanding the market in Argentina. Due to unfamiliarity with the import license system and lack of Megaduo's end-to-end distribution channels, the client encountered goods seizure.
After our company gets involved, we conduct pre-audit of the documents to avoid risks. We use our own dedicated shipping line to complete the compliant customs clearance within 7 days, then transfer to our own overseas warehouse to complete the label change and make one-click reservation for delivery to the Full warehouse of Meiguduo.
The overall logistics delivery time was shortened by 22 days, the risk of delayed deliveries was completely eliminated, the overall operating costs were reduced by 15%, and the local supply chain was successfully connected.
