Maersk and ICC = Action
Great meeting with Davide Chichero, Chief of Staff at the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) in our HQ at Esplanden in Copenhagen this morning.
Exciting talk about international trade, customs, tariffs, trade facilitation, digitalization and many other topics.
We are from Maersk working closely with ICC, that is doing a stellar job in a chaplenging time for global trade.
Santa Claus is one of our happy customers
The biggest reward for us in Maersk is having satisfied customers with whom we can build long-term relationships.
As an example, Santa Claus has been with us since 1904. This long partnership shows our ability to face challenges together, such as trade wars, global pandemics, tariffs and non-tariff barriers, new WSG regulations, digitalisation, and sanctions.
When the holiday season is arriving we offer intensive customs support to our clients so they can manage end-to-end delivery, avoiding risks, border delays and detention, and crossing borders in a trade compliant way, paying the right customs duties to the lowest compliant tariff rate. In a time of unpresedented uncertainty this is more important than ever, for Santa as well as for all other traders. We don’t want children to wait for their gifts, do we?
How does Maersk Customs Services help Santa in the best possible way? We continuously educate our customs experts in customs regulations so that they can be a solid support system for our cutomers and our client facing representatives.
Our account managers, like the team supporting Santa Claus, have 24/7 customs advisory support and regularly attend customs training focused on how our customers can pass borders in a seamless and compliant way.
”Putting Customs on the top of the agenda made all the difference. I am confident that me and Rudolf will be able to deliver all the goods in a secure, compliant and timely manner this year”
Santa Claus, Maersk client since 1904
So if you want to be a VIP when crossing borders – follow the example of Santa Claus to use Maersk Customs Services.
Happy Holidays!
