Customs brokers and freight forwarders are trained to handle every kind of general commodity. But sometimes your business gravitates towards certain industries because of your client base, and at Edward J. Zarach & Associates we have found that over time, we have become experts in many specialized fields.
We leverage the care, attention to detail and specialized processes we have developed for our niche commodities and apply it to cargo that may require additional security, temperature monitoring or fall under the additional scrutiny of many other government regulatory agencies.
We don’t just pay close attention to some of our cargo, we pay close attention to all of our cargo.

We act as Customs brokers and freight forwarders for firearms and ammunition ranging from pistols through to complex military-grade weapons.
