Passport Integrates with DCL for Uninterrupted Support 

Passport’s high-touch customer support is the perfect match to DCL’s dedication to customer-centric fulfillment. With Passport DCL brands now have access to a dedicated team of international shipping experts. Passport works with sellers to test and optimize in order to identify the right shipping mix for their product, customers and brand. 

“Most international solutions are rigid, expensive, and customer unfriendly—we feel that the elegance of the Passport solution coupled with their customer-centric focus will help our brands either penetrate new international markets or quickly lift the volume in existing ones.” 

The DCL team has a 40 year history of choosing reputable supply chain partners, to ensure their customers have the best quality logistics services at their fingertips.

“One of my greatest joys is hearing how Passport helps our customers scale. It only takes a few months to see real growth—from zero international sales to 20% of their business is a new overseas market. This type of growth is only possible with a well-integrated fulfillment partner like DCL Logistics to dial in the supply chain.”
