services
We take a holistic approach to providing our services. By contracting us to handle the entire scope of the shipping and logistics process, we are able to minimize miscommunication that occurs when using multiple independent service providers. Streamlining this process saves our clients’ money and helps eliminate unnecessary delays to keep your live event on schedule.
With our tried and tested group of agents and vendors, GG Forces can craft a tailored freight forwarding plan that fits the rigorous demands of any live event around the world.
Air Freight.
When production itineraries jump from continent to continent, our team is well equipped to arrange domestic and international air freight services while mitigating risk when time is of the essence.
Ocean Freight.
For a more cost-effective option for international transport, our seasoned agents can handle all of your ocean shipping services for general and high-cube containers.
Trucking.
Inner-city trucking regulations are complex and always changing. Fortuitously, GG Forces is always on top of local city regulations around the globe. We can arrange multi-city trucking for tours and live events of any size.
Rail Freight.
If your schedule allows, domestic transport via railways in various countries is a cost-effective alternative to trucking. Railway systems throughout parts of Asia, Europe, and the Americas are highly developed.
Multimodal.
We can analyze the most efficient transport options from above and combine parts of them into one customized freight forwarding package that best fits your budget and logistical requirements to execute a seamless tour from start to finish.
Customs Brokerage.
GG Forces can handle all of your customs brokerage needs in any country around the world. Our operations team has built lasting relationships with local authorities, have years of experience preparing ATA Carnets and other necessary documents, and are pros at securing bonds to move in and out of countries with little to no delays. It’s not uncommon for a GG Forces agent to even be onsite to supervise and verify each customs clearance.
Insurance.
Most of our clients have their property or goods insured through their existing company policy, but the majority of polices leave holes in international shipping coverage and day-to-day movement of goods. It’s common practice for GG Forces to secure tailored policies that properly cover our clients. In this way, we can ensure that if claims are made, your precious cargo will be covered.
Onsite Logistics.
Onsite logistics can make or break a tour. Details like properly arranging trucks in loading docks on time for load-ins and outs, arranging and supervising the grounding of containers if necessary, finding a location to store empty containers during show runs if a site lacks available space, and supervising team drivers for long hauls are a handful of onsite logistics we manage day in and day out. For larger tours, our agents often conduct site surveys to take into account detailed requirements to better orchestrate smooth load-ins for each and every event.
Freight Forwarding & Logistics GURU
The GG Forces operation strategy is based on a dedicated single point of contact. Each and every one of our clients are awarded a dedicated operations agent – your logistics “GURU”. No matter where your cargo is in the world – on an ocean liner, passing through customs, or on location – your guru will oversee all aspects of your project, which means our customers only have one contact to coordinate with for all their freight forwarding and logistics needs. For all questions or concerns, your dedicated guru will be available 24/7 by phone, email, or even onsite.
