Your advantages!
A partner such as Fresh Connection brings a number of interesting advantages.
Thanks to our Full AEOcertificate, we are a trusted partner of customs and – under normal circumstances – we can take care of all customs formalities ourselves.
What's more, we are given priority or are allowed to choose a preferred location for customs checks. Thanks to our Full AEO certificate, you can be sure that we have everything completely in order when it comes to security.
Fresh Connection is an approved inspection site of the FASFC, enabling the FASFC to inspect goods at our premises. In addition, we have a licence to inspect bananas ourselves. That significantly reduces lead times.
As an authorised banana weigher, Fresh Connection can weigh your bananas and immediately clear them for transport in the EU. This helps you to avoid losing any valuable time.
Perhaps the biggest advantage of all: we arrange everything from the transport to the handling and storage of your reefer cargo. So you can sleep easily.
