Practical guides on importing and sourcing from China to Bangladesh – covering freight, customs, suppliers, quality control and trade costs from the DE International team.
Free time runs on two separate clocks — port storage and carrier detention — and both start from vessel discharge, not cargo arrival. Here is how free time actually works at Chattogram Port and how to avoid losing it to paperwork delays.
Trend apparel loses value fast once its selling window closes. Here is how volumetric weight, hybrid air/sea splits, and ex-factory timing actually determine whether air freight protects your launch date.
Combi ovens, walk-in panels, and stainless steel worktables need different packaging, loading, and consolidation planning than standard cargo. Here is what actually protects a restaurant kitchen fit-out in transit.
A meat retail cold room is not a scaled-down warehouse facility. Here is how chill/freeze zoning, hygiene requirements, and delivery-cycle sizing differ for butcher shops and meat counters in Bangladesh.
Panel material and panel thickness are two different decisions. Here is how insulation thickness actually works, why chillers and freezers need different specs, and the mistakes buyers make in Bangladesh’s climate.
A caterer’s cold storage demand swings from nearly empty to fully loaded within a week. Here is why sizing it like a restaurant’s steady-state cold room falls short.
Jackfruit is large, irregularly shaped, and ripens fast once it starts. Here is why it needs a different cold chain approach than the mango export process it often gets compared to.
Power racks and plate-loaded machines ship and clear customs differently than typical consumer goods. Here is what changes when the cargo is heavy, oddly shaped, and going up a staircase.
Having racks is not the same as having a system. Here is how slotting by pick frequency, not arrival order, cuts wasted walking time in a warehouse.
Sending goods back to a supplier is not the reverse of importing them. Here is how the re-export declaration actually works, and why paid duty does not come back automatically.
