Challenges of International Logistics

Logistical challenges are critical when expanding into international markets, as they can significantly affect customer experience. Companies must navigate issues like international shipping fees, delivery times, and unexpected import duties that create barriers for potential buyers. For example, customers may be discouraged from completing purchases if they encounter hefty shipping charges or additional fees upon delivery. Addressing these logistical hurdles is essential to facilitate smooth transactions when moving into new territories.
