I'm looking for a licensed U.S. Customs Broker to assist with clearing recurring imports of Japanese food, beverage, and convenience store products for my retail business based in Summerville, South Carolina. All shipments will arrive at the Port of Charleston and consist of packaged foods (ramen, gummies, snacks, canned drinks), cosmetics, and novelty items (e.g., gachapon capsule toys).

Typical Shipment Profile:

Frequency: 1–2 shipments per month (initially)

Type: LCL ocean freight

SKU Count: 30–100+ unique FDA-regulated items per shipment

No USDA-regulated products (no meat extracts or fresh produce)

I will help with HTS codes, FDA facility numbers, research and providing data for prior notice.

Ongoing Work:
This is intended as a long-term working relationship, with increasing volume as my business grows. I’m looking for a reliable partner who can support recurring monthly imports and help streamline the clearance process efficiently.

If you’re interested and meet the above criteria, please feel free to reach out. Budget is negotiable, can do either hourly or fixed price etc. I’d love to discuss your experience and how we might work together.
