EHS Freightliner, our offsite bonded warehouse established in 2012, supports Eric Hassell Shipping’s logistics operations in Barbados by providing secure and flexible cargo storage outside the port. As a customs-bonded facility, goods can be stored under the supervision of Barbados Customs until duties are paid or cargo is re-exported, giving businesses greater flexibility with cash flow and inventory management.
The facility also serves as an off-port collection point for Less than Container Load (LCL) shipments, reducing congestion, delays, and demurrage costs associated with port storage. EHS Freightliner additionally supports our Aeropost courier operations, enabling efficient sorting and distribution of international parcels and e-commerce shipments. Flexible short- and medium-term storage options may also be available for commercial clients with project cargo, seasonal storage, or inventory overflow needs.
