• OUR GOALS
• PROVIDE each client using our services with a
  positive shipping experience.
• DELIVER turnkey service from points in the USA
  to your booth at METS, including on-site drayage
  services.

  prices available we will match or beat any

  from start to finish.
• To start the shipping process, Ms. Julie Balzano
  of the NMMA will be sending out our
  TRANSPORTATION GUIDELINES by email to each USA
  Pavilion exhibitor on Monday. This is a
  step-by-step outline of how to prepare your
  shipment, when to have it ready, and what Customs
  documents and regulations are to be followed.
  The email will be sent along with required
  supporting Customs documentation and forms.
• A few of the most important points are
  highlighted on the following pages of our webinar
  presentation.

INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS SERVICES
WHAT SETS PHOENIX SERVICES APART Our company
offers service to METS that is unmatched by any
other freight forwarders, that includes DIRECT
40-FT OCEAN CONTAINERS FROM NEW YORK AND
MIAMI We consolidate only freight for U.S.
exhibitors attending METS cargo is loaded at
our consolidation point and not mixed with other
cargo or transferred to other warehouses along
the route. It arrives at our Amsterdam warehouse
early and is then staged for final delivery to
the Amsterdam RAI on the target move-in date of
Sunday, Nov. 15th A.M. This translates to
minimum cargo handling and therefore reduced risk
for damage. The safest way to ship ocean
freight! EIGHT YEARS OF EXPERIENCE HANDLING THE
NMMA PAVILION AT METS NMMA Pavilion coordinators
over the previous 8 years have recommended our
company to its membership. No other freight
forwarder has the valuable experience working
with the NMMA members than Phoenix. ON-SITE SHOW
COORDINATOR FROM THE U.S. Our show coordinator
Mr. Frank Rettig has handled shipping
arrangements for NMMA exhibitors at METS for all
of these past 8 years. He is the only U.S.-based
representative of any freight forwarder available
on-site to take care of all your drayage
services, handling of empties, on-site paperwork,
and reloading of any return cargo. NO NEED TO
LEAVE YOUR BOOTH TO DEAL WITH LOGISTICS Mr.
Rettig will meet you at your METS booth to
confirm timely delivery of your freight, take
care of local Customs arrangements for sold
items, and coordinate on-site drayage services
for move-in and move-out. PRIORITY RETURN OF
EMPTIES DURING MOVE-OUT NO EXTRA
CHARGE Phoenix has reserved dedicated storage
space and crew to ensure the quickest possible
return of empties during move-out. In 2012, all
U.S. exhibitors received their empty packing
materials by 630PM, packed up, and enjoyed their
last night in AMS!

• WHEN AND WHERE TO SHIP YOUR CARGO
• SEA FREIGHT CARGO
• Exhibitors located on the East Coast, Midwest, or
  West Coast SHIP to our NJ Consolidation point
  to arrive by Oct. 12th
• Exhibitors located in the Southeast or Southwest
  SHIP to our MIAMI Consolidation point to arrive
  by Oct. 10th
• We ask that all exhibitors make their own US
  inland transportation arrangements to one of our
  consolidation points. Most of our clients have
  their own preferred US trucker and discount
  program, so we leave this step up to each
  customer. From the consolidation point, Phoenix
  will take care of everything else up to your
  booth. Ship prepaid addresses for delivery are
  provided in the Transportation Guidelines to
  follow.
