Our Foreign-Trade Zones in the USA and Panama help you mitigate tariffs, manage costs, and stay agile in today’s evolving market.
Maximize Your Logistics Strategy with Our FTZs in the USA & Panama

As a trusted international freight forwarder, we understand the challenges that come with navigating global trade, especially with the recent announcement of reciprocal tariffs. Now, more than ever, it’s crucial for businesses to stay agile and optimize their supply chains. We are excited to offer you strategic solutions through our Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZs) in the USA and Panama to help mitigate tariff impacts and streamline your logistics.

Take Advantage of Our FTZs in the USA

Our FTZs located across the South, East, and West Coasts of the USA offer unparalleled benefits to help you manage costs, build inventory close to your end-consumer, and remain competitive. Here’s why you should consider utilizing these zones:

  • Duty & Tax Deferral: Import goods into the USA without paying duties and taxes when they are admitted to the FTZ. Duties are only paid when goods are entered for consumption  in the USA.
  • Duty Elimination: Goods admitted into zone status and subsequently re-exported from the US Customs territory are not subject to US import duties.
  • Inventory Management: Build up inventory close to your market without worrying about immediate tax and duty implications. This allows you to stay responsive to demand fluctuations, reducing costly delays and speeding up your time-to-market.
  • Reduced Costs: With the current uncertainties around reciprocal tariffs, using FTZs can help shield your goods from excessive duties, offering a buffer against tariff hikes that might otherwise impact your bottom line.
  • Strategic Locations: With our FTZs spread across key US regions, you can strategically position your inventory closer to major consumer markets, allowing for quicker distribution and reducing shipping costs.

Panama as a Key Logistics Hub for the Americas

Additionally, our operations in Panama provide you with access to one of the most important logistics hubs in the Americas. With direct access to the Colon Free Zone and proximity to major shipping routes, Panama offers several advantages for your logistics strategy:

  • Strategic Location: Positioned between North and South America, Panama serves as a gateway to both markets, offering a prime location for distribution throughout the Americas, the Caribbean, and the USA.
  • Colon Free Zone: As one of the largest free zones in the world, the Colon Free Zone offers significant tax and duty exemptions, providing an ideal environment for goods transshipment, warehousing, and re-exportation.
  • Local Expertise: With our own offices and operations in Panama, we have a deep understanding of local regulations and logistics dynamics. We can help you navigate Panama’s benefits seamlessly, ensuring that your goods are efficiently moved through the region.
  • Reduced Tariffs & Import Taxes: Similar to FTZs in the U.S., Panama’s free zones allow companies to store, process, or re-export goods without paying duties or taxes upfront. Taxes and import duties are only due if the goods are eventually brought into Panama for local consumption — otherwise, they can be re-exported tax-free to their final destination.

Why This Matters Now

With the new reciprocal tariffs being announced, it’s critical to find ways to lower your exposure to these increasing costs. Both our USA FTZs and Panama operations provide solutions that allow you to store, manage, and distribute goods with significant cost savings, particularly when facing unpredictable tariff changes.

By leveraging our FTZs and Panama’s logistical advantages, you gain flexibility, efficiency, and a competitive edge in today’s rapidly changing global trade environment.

Let’s Talk!

Our team is ready to discuss how our FTZs in the USA and our Panama logistics hub can benefit your business. Don’t wait—take full advantage of these strategic locations and the opportunities they present during these uncertain times.

By combining efficiency with eco-friendly practices, JAS ECONTAINER not only reduces environmental impact but also offers cost savings and operational efficiencies, driving meaningful change in the industry and paving the way for a greener future, one shipment at a time.
Unlocking Sustainability and Efficiency with JAS ECONTAINER 

At JAS, sustainability is a journey we're deeply committed to, and Earth Month serves as an ideal moment to shine a spotlight on initiatives that embody this commitment. One initiative that continues to drive positive change is JAS ECONTAINER, our innovative ocean freight solution designed to enhance operational efficiency while reducing environmental impact. 

Redefining Ocean Freight with JAS ECONTAINER 

JAS ECONTAINER combines the efficiency of headload shipments with eco-friendly practices. This approach has been at the forefront of our efforts for some time now, as highlighted by Vice President, Global Head of LCL, Peter Sinka. 

"In our ongoing journey towards sustainability, JAS ECONTAINER stands as a testament to our commitment to environmental responsibility," says Sinka. "By encouraging frequent replenishment and eliminating the pressure to fill containers to capacity, JAS ECONTAINER helps shippers reduce inventory costs, optimize warehouse space, and mitigate supply chain disruptions." 

The Environmental Imperative 

JAS ECONTAINER isn't just about operational efficiency—it's about driving meaningful change in the industry. Sinka emphasizes the product's positive environmental impact, citing its adoption of Marine Biofuel programs through insetting to achieve a net-zero carbon footprint. 

"Our goal was to create a product that not only meets modern supply chain challenges but also aligns with our commitment to sustainability," Sinka explains. "By choosing JAS ECONTAINER, shippers not only benefit from cost savings and operational efficiencies but also contribute to a greener, more sustainable future." 

A Competitive Edge 

Beyond its environmental benefits, JAS ECONTAINER offers a competitive edge in the market. Sinka notes that the product bridges the gap between traditional LCL and FCL offerings, providing cost-effective solutions for shipments ranging from 20 to 50 CBM. 

"Traditionally, LCL shipments face competitiveness challenges beyond a certain volume threshold," Sinka observes. "JAS ECONTAINER's pricing methodology ensures cost-effectiveness even for larger shipments, making it a preferred choice for shippers seeking optimal value and sustainability." 

Embracing a Greener Future 

As businesses worldwide prioritize sustainability and operational efficiency, JAS ECONTAINER emerges as a catalyst for positive change. Its flat-rate pricing model, strategic consolidation strategies, and eco-friendly initiatives not only drive cost savings but also empower shippers to make environmentally conscious choices. 

"In a world where sustainability and efficiency go hand in hand, JAS ECONTAINER offers a compelling solution," Sinka concludes. "We invite businesses to join us in embracing a greener future—one shipment at a time."

Port Logistics

Port Worker

Seaports are critical components of the global transport system. JAS is present with our own port terminals at every port in Norway as well as via our partners in countries around the globe. This provides a global network of opportunities for our customers with the ability to meet all types of international inquiries. With convenient port locations, it is only a short distance from ships to land-based logistics functions.

Loading and discharging of bulk loads, tankers, and container vessels

We have a close relationship with large industrial suppliers and ship owners and operate as agents for the largest feeder companies. We offer loading and discharging of bulk loads, tankers, and container vessels, and quayside storage provides direct access to container ships and marine vessels. This is available from both our own and our clients’ quays. In addition, our experienced team members can provide all services related to the stuffing, stripping, securing, and packaging of goods in containers.

Container depots in all Norway ports and experienced engineer teams onsite

All Norway ports have container depots and dedicated staff with broad experience in terminal operations. Our teams of qualified service engineers oversee the maintenance and repair of all containers, ensuring they are ready to be loaded and shipped. We provide daily stock- and movement-reports, and always have the right equipment available at the right time.

Cross-docking solutions keep your goods moving

Port Workers

We offer a cross-docking solution that keeps your goods moving. The storage time is significantly reduced, or eliminated, as the goods are distributed directly to the customer. The goods are received through an inbound dock, separated, mixed as required, and directly transferred to the outbound dock. This is a convenient solution for temperature-controlled goods that must be transported quickly or already packaged and sorted goods.

Your complete port logistics provider

One of the most important things in port logistics is personal service. We put the customers first, solving their problems by providing customized solutions and around-the-clock customer service with flexible and reliable processes. No matter the size of your shipment or the needs you may have, we are your complete port logistics provider.
