DGX starts customs brokerage division

DGX starts customs brokerage division    Dependable Global Express, a Rancho Dominguez, Calif.-based logistics provider, has established a customs brokerage division to complement its freight forwarding operations.
   Gloria Serrano, DGX's global import manager and a licensed broker, will oversee the division. The company has remote filing capability that allows it to handle processing of import clearances at any Customs and Border Protection U.S. port of entry.
   “Many locations in the U.S., generally not considered ‘gateways’ like the major ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach or New York, actually handle significant amounts of goods entering the U.S.,” she said. “With our remote filings capabilities, DGX now can process customs clearances to any destination in the U.S.”
   DGX’s customs brokerage division is part of the company's growth plan. During the past few months, it has announced new ocean services to the West Coast of South America and the Caribbean, and greatly expanded facilities in the U.S. territory of Guam.
   DGX is part of 'offshore' Dependable Company of Transportation Services, which also includes Dependable Hawaiian Express and Dependable AirCargo Express.
   Dependable Hawaii Express is the largest freight forwarder serving the Hawaiian Islands and also provides cargo service to Guam.
   Dependable AirCargo Express is an air freight forwarder serving both domestic and international shippers.
   The “onshore” operating group of Dependable Companies includes Dependable Highway Express, Dependable Distribution Centers and Dependable Logistics Solutions.
