Headquartered in Los Angeles, privately held, in business since 1995. End-to-end logistics for a select roster of long-standing partners.
Every service below runs under one accountable line. No handoffs to brokers, carriers, or inspectors who don't know the account. One ops desk, one phone number, end to end. The boring kind of excellence, repeated thousands of times a year.
FCL and LCL with carrier diversification across every major lane. Reefer, hazmat, and project cargo when the standard box won't do.
Express, consolidation, and charter. AOG for grounded aircraft, perishables on cold-chain, and white-glove for the loads that can't wait for the boat.
FTL, LTL, and drayage across the lower 48. Vetted carrier network with a dispatch desk that knows your dock by name, not just by number.
Licensed customs brokers on staff. HTS classification, duty optimization, post-summary reconciliation. We file it right the first time, not after CBP calls.
All-risk, warehouse-to-warehouse coverage placed through A-rated underwriters. Bound before the container leaves the pier, not negotiated after the claim.
Boots-on-the-ground inspection at origin. Pre-shipment, during-production, container loading. Photos, reports, and a hold-for-release before anything leaves the factory.
We won't lead with portals or AI. We'll talk about our brokers, our drayage drivers, and the standing 6 a.m. call where the team works the next 24 hours of the network: Asia closing, North America opening, Europe at the dock.
The systems matter. The contracts matter. But the difference between a shipment that lands clean and one that spirals is almost always a person, paying attention, picking up the phone, making the right call when the bill of lading is wrong at midnight. That is what the firm is built around.
Picking the right mode isn't a checkbox; it's the difference between a 4% margin and a 14% one. Lane economics, transit, and risk get modeled before any commitment. Partners see the math, not just the rate.
Origin and destination service in 90+ countries through a vetted partner network. Deep density across the Trans-Pacific, Trans-Atlantic, and intra-Asia trade lanes, plus a US ground network that takes it from the pier to the floor.
We've worked with the global names. JR&K is the only forwarder that feels like part of our team. Their broker knows our HTS codes, their dispatch knows our docks, and they call before there's a problem, not after.
Active accounts route through their named dispatcher direct. For introductions, referrals, or notes from carriers and brokers, the form below reaches the front office.
