"Concept BSP has enabled our business to go from strength to strength in the last 3 years. The service we receive has always been of the highest standards, and we would thoroughly recommend Concept BSP to any SME or new business involved in supplying a product in the UK".
This client's business is importing wine from Argentina and Spain. Our first ever outsourcing client, this company has been with us for the last 3 years, and has now established itself as one of the leading importers of fine Argentinean wines.
The business is owned by the three directors, only one of whom is involved with the company on a day to day basis. His primary role is sales, marketing and growth of the business, which requires international travel on a regular basis. The company does have a working office, and also employs part time staff. However, when both the director and part time employees are out of the office, Concept BSP will take redirected calls for the period required.
Due to the complicated nature of the importation of wines (particularly from outside the EU) Concept BSP handles the relevant paperwork and liaises with the bonded warehouse and shippers to bring the wines into the country. This has meant that the company has not had to employ a full time import manager or put current staff through training to facilitate the movement of stock.
Concept BSP handles a range of services for this client;
- Organising the importation of product from source
- Dealing with all customs paperwork and licenses
- Managing bonded warehouses
- Taking orders
- Sales order processing
- Invoicing
- Monthly statements
- Stock control
- Management of deliveries to private and commercial customers, including problem solving when required
- Telephone answering on an "as needed" basis
- Mixed case pick/ pack and despatch from our premises
