PRACTICAL CUSTOMS SOLUTIONS
FOR INTERNATIONAL TRADERS

BKR CONSULTANTS
LIMITED

BKR is a UK based consultancy firm, with roots in customs brokerage and international trade. We provide professional and practical guidance on all matters associated with customs clearance, customs compliance and supply chain efficiency.

Every year, supply chains are becoming larger and more complex. Customs processing is now more important than ever before and may ultimately be perceived as an inconvenience to the way your business operates. We, however, think differently.

Our belief is that businesses which embrace the challenges of customs processing can in turn develop critical knowledge to transform the way their supply chain operates and convert a perceived “inconvenience” into a competitive advantage that strengthens the core of the business.

OUR TEAM


Our team of customs advisors is geographically dispersed throughout the UK and comprises individuals with diverse backgrounds and extensive expertise in areas such as health and regulatory affairs, large business unit management, and customs brokerage. This enables us to offer clients practical customs advice that is tailored to their unique requirements.
