20 years of experience serving publishers
We count major French publishing houses among our clients and, thanks to their long-standing trust, we have developed solid expertise in this specific logistics model for importing their products.
Our teams understand the constraints of books, calendars, game boxes and other editorial references, from origin shipment to final warehouse or platform delivery.
Editorial logistics
International flows optimized from origin
Our operational teams manage regular maritime shipments for publishing clients under FOB or EXW terms from China, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore, via LCL, airfreight or full container load.
To optimize logistics costs, we consolidate full containers whenever possible with goods from several small suppliers. We also advise clients on how to load the maximum number of cartons according to stated dimensions.
Unloading, dispatch and palletization in Le Havre
Upon arrival in Le Havre, we unload cartons carefully in our warehouses and manage dispatch by destination, often involving regrouping lots from different containers, palletization planning and pallet build-up according to each final delivery warehouse’s specifications.
We therefore master all required pallet types, such as 80×100, 80×120 or 120×120 cm, along with maximum heights and stretch-wrap requirements used by major publishing distribution platforms.
Controlled customs classification and product compliance
Our customs declarants and brokers have extensive experience with publishing products and fully manage customs declarations and tariff classification for books, magazines, games, toy regulations, CE obligations and related documentary requirements.
This expertise secures import flows and limits regulatory risk on product lines that are often numerous, seasonal and sourced from multiple suppliers.
A dedicated application: MyBooks
We have also designed a dedicated application, MyBooks, to track the arrival of your book containers, their actual unloading, carton palletization, delivery scheduling, transport bookings and appointments with your receivers.
Use NUART codes to navigate more easily through dense, multi-reference publishing logistics tied to precise distribution calendars.
