⬢

Logistics & Customs

Sea, rail and road freight, Incoterms 2020, EORI & HS-code classification, import VAT deferment (Art. 23).

⬣

Quality Control

AQL inspections, lab testing, pre-shipment reports with photo/video evidence before you pay the balance.


Why importers choose us

  • Single agreement under Dutch jurisdiction — no offshore risk
  • Fixed service fee, supplier invoices shown transparently
  • English / Dutch / German / Polish speaking managers
  • Cargo insurance and claims handling included

Typical engagement

Most clients start with a trial lot of €15–50k. Average first-year saving vs. direct buying: 9–14% on landed cost thanks to consolidated freight and QC that prevents defects.


“Important Pull consolidated five Chinese suppliers into two containers and cut our landed cost by 11%. The inspection reports alone are worth the fee.” — Operations Director, garden equipment distributor, DE
