Shapiro 360° -
Redefining the Logistics Experience
Shapiro 360° redefines the logistics experience by offering more than just basic track-and-trace capabilities—which have become as commonplace in the industry as iced water in a restaurant. It’s a technology tool carefully outfitted with a customizable suite of features designed to quench your data thirst. Imagine having complete flexibility and control over your shipment data, akin to choosing your preferred drink in any size, shape, or flavor. With Shapiro 360°, you’ll have access to 24/7 shipment reporting, customizable dashboards, and real-time shipment event notifications.
Customs
Brokerage
Customs brokerage is the regulatory clearance of shipments and the delivery of goods across international borders for organizations and individuals. That’s the easy part. Shapiro understands that the key to modern Customs brokerage is the creative application and integration of technology. We build data tables controlled by licensed Customs experts and use remote filing systems to electronically verify all data inputs and outputs. Shapiro treats each shipment as though our business depends on it—because it does. Which is why we always go the extra mile for you and your cargo. Our in-house Customs brokerage team is an extension of your business, and we do whatever it takes to help you succeed and achieve long term growth. Whether you’re a multinational conglomerate or a mid-size importer…We Deliver. Problem Solved.
Regulatory
Compliance
There are two simple steps to avoiding regulatory compliance trouble: First, know the rules. Second, don’t break them. The potential penalties, both financial and commercial, can be extremely damaging for your business and, in some cases, for you personally. Since 1915, our company culture has been built on a reputation of business integrity and our deep knowledge of the complex legal and regulatory compliance hurdles faced by importers and exporters. Our reputation extends from U.S. Customs and Border Protection to all major government agencies that regulate international trade, to our industry, and to yours. When you partner with Shapiro, you know that you have a true Customs compliance advisor in your back pocket.
Freight
Forwarding
When you entrust your supply chain logistics and freight forwarding services to Shapiro, you’re partnering with a team of professionals dedicated to delivering exceptional results. We collaborate closely with you to craft tailored logistics solutions and freight consolidation services that align with your business goals. In addition to our flexible offerings, we provide the necessary metrics, exception reporting, and audits to help you focus on growing your business—beyond just the freight. Shapiro’s approach to international freight forwarding ensures that we design solutions specific to the unique needs of importers and exporters, all while adapting to the fast-evolving landscape of logistics and business. You can rely on us for superior performance in supply chain logistics because we treat our customers as friends—and we genuinely care about their success.
Purchase Order
Management
Shapiro’s Purchase Order Management (POM) and vendor management products are designed to offer customers full flexibility, full control, and absolute end-to-end visibility of your supply chain. Unlike many forwarders and 3PLs, which require you to use their system as is, Shapiro’s customizable POM system allows you to tailor the solution to your specific needs. After all, too much information can be just as overwhelming as too little. Our Shapiro 360 supply chain tools are built and maintained in-house and designed to quench your thirst for data while understanding that your data requirements will remain fluid.
Getting to Know
Shapiro
We strive for customer satisfaction in everything we do, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a little fun along the way. Or, spread some of our knowledge. We don’t mind sharing. That’s why we run free logistics webinars and offer a wide range of free resources — so you can learn more about supply chain consulting, freight management, regulatory compliance, cargo insurance and more!

Transportation Modes
Whether your shipments take to the skies, the rails, or the high seas, Shapiro offers tailored logistics solutions to keep your supply chain running smoothly. Our airfreight services provide real-time tracking, compliance consulting, and classification advisory, ensuring a seamless experience from takeoff to touchdown. If domestic freight challenges have you feeling off course, our nationwide network of trusted inland vendors brings reliability, transparency, and creative problem-solving to your road and rail shipments. And for ocean freight, our expert team delivers the visibility, flexibility, and customized solutions modern businesses need—so you can navigate global trade with confidence. Wherever your cargo goes, Shapiro is your trusted co-pilot, conductor, and captain.
