Produktbeschreibung

Global trade looks simple from the outside. A buyer places an order, a seller ships the goods, and everything somehow arrives. Behind that apparent simplicity sits a complex system of freight forwarders, carriers, customs rules, warehouses, ports, and digital pipelines that must work together for anything to move. This book explains that system in plain language and shows how freight truly flows around the world.

Behind the Box takes readers inside the real mechanics of international logistics, using clear models, practical frameworks, and real world case patterns. You will learn how cargo is priced, how ports operate, how forwarders think, why documentation drives everything, and how disruptions cascade across supply chains. The goal is simple. When something goes wrong in a shipment, you will understand exactly why.

You will learn:

. How a shipment actually moves from factory to warehouse to port to vessel to customs to delivery

. How Incoterms shape cost, risk, responsibility, and decision making

. How carriers set rates and why those rates change

. How HS codes, origin rules, and compliance systems affect duties and delays

. How forwarders plan, sequence, and troubleshoot complex moves

. How port congestion, strikes, weather, and global events create chain reactions

. How digital workflows, integrations, and event driven systems control the modern supply chain

The book connects operational details with the larger structure of global trade. It explains the difference between what shippers see on the surface and what logistics professionals manage behind the scenes. Whether you work in logistics, manage shipments in your business, study supply chain, or simply want to understand how the world's freight network functions, this book gives you a clear and practical guide to the system that moves goods across the planet.

Written by Scott Wongsanguan, a software developer with experience in freight forwarding, transportation, and international trade operations, and a USCBP AES Certified Software Developer, the book brings together operational knowledge and technical insight to show how freight moves in the real world.
