Continental Supply Co. B.V. — Global Reach. Local Reliability.

How we work

From first contact to final delivery — without the black box

A predictable sequence for messy corridors. You always know what happens next, who owns it, and what we need from you.

Five steps

Every engagement follows the same spine — tailored to your lane

  1. 01

    Initial consultation

    We map goods, trade lane, volumes, Incoterms preference, and hard deadlines. You leave with a clear feasibility read — including where customs or mode choice is the real risk.

  2. 02

    Documentation & classification

    We assemble and verify commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, and HS classification support so filings match what is actually on the truck, vessel, or aircraft.

  3. 03

    Customs filing

    Pre-arrival declarations go in digitally where the lane allows. Duties are calculated, supporting docs are attached, and submission timing is aligned to ETA — not to wishful thinking.

  4. 04

    Clearance & release

    We coordinate with customs authorities and terminal operators for road borders, port terminals, or Schiphol cargo. Holds get escalated with facts, not silence.

  5. 05

    Delivery & follow-up

    Final handoff to your warehouse or consignee, full documentation pack delivered, and a short debrief so the next shipment on the same lane runs cleaner.

Before cargo moves

Documentation work that happens early enough to matter

Most delays are born in the document pack: wrong HS, missing origin proof, commercial invoice values that do not match the packing list. We treat documentation as an operations discipline, not an afterthought emailed the night before arrival.

  • Shared checklist per corridor and mode
  • Early flagging of certificates you will need
  • Classification questions resolved before booking
  • One pack your warehouse and customs can both use

Through release

Clearance coordination and a debrief that improves the next run

Once filings are in, we stay close to release. Road borders, port terminals, and airport cargo sheds each have their own rhythm. You get status you can schedule against — and a clear ask when we need a decision from your side.

After delivery, we close the loop: what slowed the move, what to reuse next time, and whether the mode or Incoterm should change for the following lot.
