We orchestrate end-to-end logistics through the Miami corridor via our partner network — ocean freight (FCL/LCL) via PortMiami and Port Everglades, air freight via Miami International Airport (MIA), customs brokerage coordination, bonded and non-bonded warehousing, drayage and ground transport, and supply chain advisory. Imports, exports, and cross-trade shipments are all supported.
What are the advantages of routing cargo through Miami vs. other US ports?
Miami offers the shortest ocean transit times to Latin America and the Caribbean, direct air connections to virtually every major LATAM city, FTZ #32 for duty deferral and inverted tariff benefits, and the largest concentration of customs brokers and freight forwarders in the Southeast. For Brazil, Colombia, Caribbean, and Mexico Atlantic corridors, no other US port comes close in efficiency.
Can Suaid Global coordinate imports from Latin America via Miami?
Yes. Over 80% of US trade with Latin America passes through Miami, and this corridor is a core specialty of our partner network. We coordinate imports from Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and every other Latin American country — covering customs clearance, duty calculation, FTA benefits (USMCA, CAFTA-DR, US-Colombia TPA), and last-mile delivery.
Can Suaid Global coordinate perishable and temperature-controlled cargo through Miami?
Yes. Miami International Airport is the #1 US gateway for perishable imports — fresh flowers, tropical fruits, seafood, and pharmaceuticals. Our partner network coordinates USDA/APHIS inspections, manages reefer containers, arranges bonded cold storage, and provides temperature-monitored delivery to final destinations across Florida and the US.
What is Foreign-Trade Zone #32 at PortMiami and how does it benefit importers?
FTZ #32 at PortMiami allows imported goods to be stored, assembled, or re-exported without paying US customs duties immediately. Key benefits: duty deferral (pay only when goods enter US commerce), inverted tariff savings (pay the lower rate on finished goods vs. components), and duty elimination on re-exports. Especially valuable for companies assembling goods for Latin America re-export.
