Customs & Logistics

We design and coordinate shipments between Italy and Eastern Europe with compliant documentation, full traceability, and timelines under control.

From carrier selection to customs formalities, every step is managed with rigor and transparency. We plan collections, packing, and deliveries to reduce downtime and unforeseen issues, keeping suppliers, warehouses, and involved offices aligned. Our goal is simple: to deliver goods on time, safely, and at the agreed cost—avoiding slowdowns and fragmented communication.

With Palazzo Diva, logistics and customs work as one: a continuous flow that ensures operational efficiency, peace of mind for the client, and consistency with the brand’s standards.

We start by mapping existing flows: type of goods, volumes, seasonality, origin and destination points, Incoterms used, and recurring criticalities.

Based on this, we design a tailored logistics model, choosing the most suitable combination of road, rail, sea, and—when needed—air transport. We assess lead times, costs, carrier reliability, and flexibility in case of peaks or urgencies, so the supply chain doesn’t seize up at the first unexpected event.

On the customs side, we ensure goods are correctly framed: classification, origin, applicable duties, mandatory documentation, and any preferential regimes.

We coordinate freight forwarders and customs brokers, and set up procedures and checklists for invoices, packing lists, declarations, and required certificates, so every shipment leaves with the right documents. This drastically reduces the risk of holds, extra costs, and border delays.

In day-to-day operations, we schedule collections, loads, and deliveries through a clear calendar shared with all parties: manufacturers, warehouses, logistics hubs, and end customers.

We monitor shipment status, flag deviations from expected timelines, and activate alternative solutions when issues arise (traffic, weather conditions, extraordinary inspections). Traceability is not just a tracking number: it’s an up-to-date picture telling you where the goods are, when they will arrive, and what’s needed to clear any bottlenecks.

We also optimize packaging, load units, and consolidation methods to reduce wasted space, breakage, and unnecessary costs.

We work with warehouses to set receiving and shipping procedures aligned with production timelines and market requirements—avoiding double handling and out-of-control inventory. When necessary, we support the selection of the most suitable insurance coverage for the flows and the value of the goods.

Each process is supported by simple, readable reporting: average lead times, on-time performance, costs, anomalies, and carrier performance.

This allows management to make decisions based on real data—not impressions—and to course-correct quickly when something isn’t working as expected. Logistics and customs become a governed area, rather than the place where last-minute pressure and emergencies get dumped.
