Fashion & Textiles Logistics Textiles Logistics
Miss a season launch window and your entire collection becomes last year's inventory. We ensure your pieces arrive on time, ready for the sales floor.
In fashion, a delay isn't just a loss โ it's irrelevance
The fashion industry operates in relentless cycles. A collection that arrives two weeks late has already lost half its commercial value. Wrinkled garments, broken hangers, incorrect documentation โ every mistake costs money and reputation. We build logistics operations that respect the speed and delicacy that fashion demands.
Hanging Garment Transport (GOH)
Containers equipped with GOH bars for hanging garment transport, eliminating the need to re-press and fold on arrival. Your clothes arrive ready for the rack, wrinkle-free and without extra preparation costs.
Fast-Fashion Speed Logistics
2-4 week cycles from design to sales floor. We combine express air freight with expedited clearance and just-in-time distribution so new collections arrive before the competition. Speed is fashion's currency.
Seasonal Surge Management
Spring/Summer, Fall/Winter, Black Friday, Holiday Season โ every peak demands extra capacity that doesn't exist in the off-season. We reserve vessel and air space in advance, ensuring your volumes don't get stuck when everyone needs to ship.
Garment-on-Hanger Warehousing
Warehouses equipped with rail systems for hanging garments, SKU-level picking, labeling, and preparation for omnichannel distribution. From container to store rack, without touching the floor.
Key Challenges
Speed-to-Market Pressure
Fast fashion changed the rules: the design-to-shelf cycle shrank from months to weeks. Brands that can't ship quickly lose trends and market share. Our express air and ocean freight corridors ensure you arrive before the trend cools off.
Seasonal Demand Spikes
When launch season arrives, everyone wants to ship at the same time. Vessel space vanishes, air rates skyrocket, and warehouses fill up. We plan your shipments months in advance to guarantee capacity during critical moments.
SKU Complexity
A single collection can have thousands of SKUs โ sizes, colors, styles, variants. Each SKU needs to be tracked, sorted, and distributed to the right channel. Picking errors mean returns, rework, and unhappy customers.
Textile Import Quotas
The US applies complex quotas and tariffs on textiles from various origins. Errors in HS classification can result in tariffs 30% higher than necessary. Our compliance team ensures correct classification and leverages trade agreements to minimize costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you handle seasonal fashion logistics?
We plan 3-6 months ahead for each fashion season (Spring/Summer, Fall/Winter). This includes pre-booking ocean capacity, scheduling air freight for last-minute additions, and coordinating warehouse receiving windows so your collection is store-ready on launch day.
Can you ship garments on hangers (GOH)?
Yes. We arrange GOH containers and air freight for garments that must arrive wrinkle-free and retail-ready. Our warehouse partners provide garment handling, steaming, and re-tagging services at destination.
What about anti-dumping duties on textiles from certain countries?
Our customs brokers are experienced with textile-specific trade regulations including anti-dumping duties, Section 301 tariffs, and country-of-origin rules. We advise on duty mitigation strategies and ensure correct HTS classification for every fabric and garment type.
Do you handle returns and reverse logistics for fashion?
Yes. We support reverse logistics for e-commerce returns, seasonal unsold inventory, and defective product recalls. Our warehouse network handles receiving, inspection, repackaging, and redistribution or disposal.
How fast can you deliver fashion goods from Asia?
Ocean freight from China/Vietnam to US takes 14-25 days depending on coast. For urgent needs, air freight delivers in 3-5 days. We offer a combination of both โ ocean for bulk and air for top-sellers and fill-ins.
