Overview

How CPI Delivers Import, Logistics & Compliance

Getting a product legally into the United States — and keeping it saleable once it arrives — is where most international launches stall. Customs classification errors, missing agency registrations, or non-compliant labels can hold containers at the port and kill retail timelines.

CPI manages the entire operational backbone: ocean and air freight coordination, customs brokerage and HTS classification, and the agency landscape — FDA facility registration and labeling for food, beverages and cosmetics; FCC certification for electronics; CPSC and CPSIA testing for children's products; USDA requirements where applicable. We work with vetted labs and regulatory consultants so nothing is left to chance.

On the ground, your inventory lands in our climate-controlled warehousing an hour north of the Port of Miami, with pick/pack, FBA prep, kitting, and 3PL distribution to retailer DCs nationwide. GS1 barcoding, retail-compliant labeling, and EDI setup are handled in-house — your product arrives legal, labeled, and shelf-ready.

FAQ

Import, Logistics & Compliance — Common Questions

No. Many brands import through an importer-of-record arrangement without forming a U.S. entity. CPI advises on the right structure for your tax and liability situation and can manage the operational setup end to end.
It depends: FDA covers food, beverages, supplements and cosmetics; FCC covers electronics and RF devices; CPSC/CPSIA covers children's products and general consumer goods; USDA covers certain agricultural items. CPI maps your exact pathway before you ship.
