Who We Are & Where We Operate
Dedicated Ground-Level Logistics in Central Florida
Caribbean International Export / Import operates from our dedicated warehouse and receiving facility at 6140 Edgewater Drive, Suite D in Orlando, Florida (serving Lockhart, Orange County, and the broader I-4 logistics corridor). We are not an overseas call center or an automated broker platform. We are boots-on-the-ground logistics specialists handling physical freight, inspecting packaging, and managing manifests right here in Central Florida.
Our operation bridges the gap between local Florida communities and international ports, establishing dependable, direct shipping pipelines between Orlando and island destinations throughout the Caribbean.
What We Do: Comprehensive Freight & Supply Chain Services
Customs Clearance, Tariff Classification & FDA Compliance
International customs regulations leave zero room for administrative oversights. CIEI provides structured customs brokerage support, precise Harmonized System (HS) code classification, commercial invoice review, and direct coordination with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). We specialize in entry procedures for general merchandise, retail goods, and FDA-regulated cargo, mitigating costly port inspection holds before containers reach domestic ports.
Scheduled Air & Ocean Freight Forwarding
Every piece of cargo requires a strategy tailored to timeline and budget. CIEI routes commercial freight and personal cargo across major ocean lines and air carriers departing from Orlando International Airport (MCO) and South Florida maritime ports. We manage:
- Less-than-Container Load (LCL): Cost-effective shared container space for smaller freight consignments.
- Full Container Load (FCL): Dedicated 20-foot and 40-foot ocean containers for commercial distribution and total estate transfers.
- Express Air Cargo: Expedited international transit for time-critical parts, retail goods, and high-value cargo.
Personal Shipping: Barrels, Cargo Boxes & Household Relocations
Sending care packages, home appliances, or family support to the islands requires an attentive, trusted partner. CIEI coordinates the intake, staging, and vessel loading for standard 55-gallon shipping barrels, heavy-duty cargo boxes, vehicles, and multi-room household furniture. We treat your personal belongings with the respect they deserve, ensuring all export declarations and manifests are filed accurately to prevent destination delays.
Secure Warehousing, Pallet Storage & Cross-Docking
Situated right along the industrial corridor at 6140 Edgewater Drive, our facility provides secure ground-level cargo handling, pallet staging, inventory storage, and container destuffing. Businesses can position inventory closer to Florida transit lines without locking into expensive commercial leases, utilizing our flexible floor space for short-term staging or multi-month freight preservation.
Commercial Pick-and-Pack Order Fulfillment
For regional manufacturers, e-commerce brands, and importers, CIEI offers complete third-party fulfillment services. We receive raw inventory, manage SKU counts, assemble custom kits, and execute pick-and-pack fulfillment for scheduled freight delivery and parcel carriers. Your supply chain moves efficiently while you focus on driving business revenue.
