If you follow us on social media, you’ll probably know that we attended and exhibited at Going Global Live 2018 on 14th and 15th November. Held at the ExCeL in London, Going Global is a business show and conference for businesses looking to expand into international markets. At the event, we were fortunate to meet some inspiring businesspeople – young and old – who wanted to know more about global trade and the logistics processes involved. Despite an extremely busy show, we still managed to find time to catch up with Iron Man.
Louis Perrin and Katie Murphy also delivered a talk that gave an overview of the things businesses need to know when shipping overseas, as well as a quick-fire round on documentation to help ease the ‘paperwork panic’. In the talk, Katie took attendees through Incoterms, which identifies who is responsible for what when it comes to packing, shipping and customs, while Louis explained the importance of using reliable logistics specialists and answered questions on proper preparation for international shipping. If you’re interested in seeing the slides from the talk, you can find them here.
After spending two days at the event, the Hemisphere team came home with some great contacts and extremely proud of their efforts to provide support and advice to businesses looking to take their products to new markets overseas.
