Doing business in global markets: Perspectives of international freight forwarders

A frequently overlooked component of successful international trade involves the efficient distribution of products.

The forwarders overwhelmingly indicated that Great Britain was the easiest country for arranging international freight operations, while China emerged as the most difficult. Study results could be helpful both as competitive benchmarks and in formulating public policy.
