Turn Your Importer Relationships Into a New Revenue Stream
You handle the cargo. You manage the warehousing. You run the drayage. And every day, your importer clients are overpaying customs duties on the goods moving through your operation, and they don't know it.
LandedEdge lets you change that. License our screener platform, offer duty savings analysis as a service to your importer clients, and unlock a revenue line that no other terminal, warehouse, or logistics provider is offering.
You already have the relationships.
Your importer clients trust you with their cargo. You see their entry data, their shipping documents, their volume. You're closer to their import operations than almost anyone else in their supply chain, and you're in a position to surface savings they didn't know existed.
You already have the data.
The screener runs on the same documents your operations team handles every day: entry packets, commercial invoices, bills of lading. You're not asking clients for anything new. You're putting data you already touch to work in a new way.
The savings are real, and they're broad.
LandedEdge screens for two types of customs duty savings. First Sale identifies opportunities where goods move through a multi-tier transaction structure and the importer can declare a lower customs value. Non-dutiable charge analysis identifies freight, insurance, and other costs that are being included in the customs value but shouldn't be. NDC savings apply to virtually any importer paying duties, regardless of their supply chain structure. That means every importer in your client base is a potential candidate.
How It Works for You
License the Screener
Your team gets access to LandedEdge's screening platform. Upload entry packets for your importer clients and get back a clear, documented savings analysis covering First Sale eligibility and non-dutiable charge opportunities, in minutes.
Deliver Something No One Else Is Offering
Go to your importer clients with a concrete savings estimate backed by their actual entry data. You're not just moving their containers. You're showing them where they're overpaying duties. That's a conversation no other terminal, warehouse, or 3PL is having.
Connect to Implementation
When the screener identifies savings, the importer may need a qualified trade professional to capture them. LandedEdge maintains a network of vetted customs consultants and law firms who use our platform for implementation. You make the introduction. The consultant runs the engagement. The importer gets the savings. And you're the one who made it happen.
The Business Case
Differentiate on value, not price.
Terminals, warehouses, and 3PLs compete on rates, capacity, and location. The screener gives you something entirely different to talk about: a quantified duty savings opportunity that your importer clients can act on. That changes the relationship from transactional to strategic.
Generate warm leads for a referral network.
Every screened importer who finds savings needs a consultant to implement them. You're generating pre-qualified, pre-sized leads, the kind consultants pay for. Whether you build a formal referral arrangement or simply strengthen client loyalty, the economics work.
Add a revenue stream with no new infrastructure.
The screener is a software license. No new hires, no new expertise required, no customs knowledge needed on your team. Upload the documents, deliver the results, and let the platform do the analysis.
Built for Transparency
Every finding the screener produces is fully documented and traceable, tied to a specific document, a specific data point, and a specific legal standard. The analysis is deterministic: same documents in, same result out, every time. When your importer client takes the findings to a consultant or is reviewed by CBP, the documentation trail is already built. That's not just good for the importer. It's good for you, because it means the savings you surfaced are real, defensible, and backed by evidence.
