Bonded or free circulation
Choose duty deferral for slow-moving stock or immediate availability for fast lines — or run both positions in parallel.
Warehousing & Contract Logistics
Bonded and general warehousing, inventory management and value-added services delivered from facilities we operate with long-term partners.
Bonded and general warehousing
We provide both customs-bonded and general logistics warehousing by collaborating with long-term partners whose facilities and staff we know well. The distinction matters commercially: goods held in a bonded warehouse have not yet entered free circulation, so import duty and VAT are deferred until they are released — which protects your cash flow when stock sits for months. Goods in a general warehouse have already been cleared and can be dispatched immediately.
At all the warehouses we use, 24/7 security, fire precautions built to international standards and insurance cover against the usual risks are in place as standard.
Contract logistics
Because of its service range and consistency, Egeo Logistics stands out in the field of contract logistics. To manage the warehousing and distribution operations of our customers effectively, we offer a wide range of services: inventory management, order preparation, delivery-note issuing, repackaging, sorting, consolidation, labelling, packaging, pallet loading, quality control and store distribution.
What this means in practice is that your stock arrives, is counted and inspected against the packing list, is put away to a location we can report on, and leaves again in the configuration your customer expects — whether that is a full pallet to a distribution centre or a labelled carton to a retail store.
Stock accuracy and reporting
A warehouse is only as good as its numbers. We run annual and periodic inventory counts, reconcile discrepancies against receiving and dispatch records, and report stock positions on the cycle you need. Cross-docking is available where goods should not enter storage at all: inbound is broken down and reloaded to outbound the same day, which removes handling cost and shortens lead time.
Returns are handled on the same file. Reverse logistics — collection, inspection, sorting into resaleable and scrap, and restocking or disposal — is planned in advance rather than improvised when the first return arrives.

Bonded storage protects cash flow
If your stock typically sits for more than a few weeks before it is sold, deferring duty and VAT until release can be worth more than the storage rate itself. Ask us to model it against your turnover.
Frequently asked questions
Goods in a bonded warehouse have not yet been imported into free circulation, so duty and VAT are suspended until they are released. Goods in a general warehouse have already been cleared, so they are ready to dispatch but the import charges have already been paid.
Yes. Order preparation, repackaging, labelling and delivery-note issuing are part of our value-added service range, and can be run to your own packing specification.
We agree the reporting cycle at the start of the contract — typically a stock position on receipt and dispatch plus a periodic count. Discrepancies are reconciled against source documents and reported with the cause, not just the number.
Why it works
Three things we do differently
Numbers you can trust
Periodic counts, reconciliation against receipts and dispatches, and stock reporting on your cycle rather than ours.
Value-added handling
Repackaging, labelling, kitting, sorting and pallet building carried out to your specification before dispatch.
