About Our Organization
Unit International, Inc was formed in 1985 by Fred Whelan, former Director of Trade for the Port of Jacksonville, amongst others. The model for the business was to provide a European style of brokerage and forwarding he witnessed overseas which followed shipments from door to door providing the absolute highest level of customer service. Today, we strive to provide this style of service using experience and technology.
Due to overwhelming success in the Port of Jacksonville, in 1991 Unit created the "Unit International Group" and acquired ABA Brokerage Company, a Customs Broker of some 14 years in Miami.
The Unit Group then established an Export forwarding branch in Miami to complete the full range of Import/Export services in Jacksonville and Miami, Florida.
In 2000, the Unit Group obtained an NVOCC liscense and began developing agency networks in Central and South America. We have since developed strategic relationships in Asia, Europe, Canada, and India.
Our staff includes several CHB License holders, Licensed Freight Forwarders, Haz Mat Certification holders, and graduates in the fields of International Business.
We attribute our steady growth by adhering to a proven code of ethics:
A Customer is the most important person in any business.
A Customer is not dependent on us, we are dependent on them.
A Customer is not an interruption of work, they are the purpose of it.
A Customer deserves the most courteous attention we can give them, they are the lifeblood of our business. Without them, we would cease to exist.
