Ways to benefit
Quicker turnaround times
We can facilitate a quicker transfer between domestic and overseas commodity markets (including quicker cancellation and re-issuance of Warehouse Receipts), by providing clients with a convenient, efficient logistics service between our bonded and non-bonded warehouses – saving you valuable transaction time in the market
Reduced costs
Our integrated operating model avoids unnecessary logistics moves and shortens the communication chain, which in turn accelerates customs clearance and improves efficiency between onshore and offshore China movements – saving you logistics costs
Convenient service
We give you the one-stop service convenience of using a single contact to interface logistics between onshore and offshore China physical markets. Our combined capability offers reliable, convenient and efficient logistics services in international freight forwarding to and from mainland China. We also provide local services in customs clearance, commodity inspection, domestic and bonded warehousing, and onward internal distribution throughout mainland China – saving you the workload
Greater optionality
Our full service wheel capability gives you unique arbitrage and physical market opportunities. Combined together, Henry Bath and CMST give you physical delivery options against all main Western and Chinese Exchanges including LME, CME, ICE, SHFE and DCE, for products including non-ferrous metals, cocoa, coffee, rubber and plastics, as well as off-Exchange Warehouse Receipting for commodities inventory financing - giving you more opportunities to profit.
