Warehouse in Poland with racks and a packing table

01Why now

From 2026, shipping parcels directly from China to Europe costs more

  • EUR 3 duty per item.Since 1 July 2026 the EU charges EUR 3 per item on imported parcels up to EUR 150, until 1 July 2028; normal rates apply after that. Goods imported in bulk to our warehouse in Poland pay the normal duty once, at clearance.
  • A responsible person in the EU.Under GPSR (Regulation (EU) 2023/988), since 13 December 2024 every product sold in the EU needs an economic operator established in the EU. Without one, marketplaces remove the listing.
  • Retail chains buy from EU suppliers.They expect an EU invoice, documents in the local language and delivery to their distribution centre.

02Supply

Your stock is already inside the EU, so supply does not stop when transport does

When sea freight is delayed, routes change or ports are congested, European customers still receive goods from our warehouse in Poland.

  • An EU company sells.Your European customers sign with a Polish company and pay in EUR or PLN.
  • EU stock delivers.We plan safety stock around sales and transit times.
  • Several channels.Retail chains, wholesale and marketplaces sell at the same time, so you do not depend on one buyer.

Changes in tariffs, anti-dumping duties and trade policy apply to all imports. We help you plan for them in advance.

03Delivery

The warehouse is near Kraków. From here we ship to retail chains, wholesalers and end customers across the EU.

10Questions

Questions

Do I need a company in Europe?
Not always. We can handle import and sell in the EU as your distributor. If you want your own company, we help you register it in Poland together with law firms and tax advisors. We compare both options at the first meeting.
Who is the EU responsible person under GPSR?
An importer, an authorised representative or a fulfilment service provider can take this role. As your importer and distributor, we can take it on.
Which language do we use?
English.
Can you guarantee a listing at a specific retail chain?
No. The retail chain decides on the listing. We prepare the offer, documents and logistics so your product meets their requirements.
How much does it cost?
We quote individually based on products, channels and volumes. Warehousing, marketplaces and websites are priced separately.
Do you buy our goods and resell them yourselves?
We are not another buyer. We act as your sales department in the EU, build your brand with you and can take on exclusive distribution. We agree the terms at the meeting.
