Looking for the Most Effective Way to Enter the U.S. Market?

By Craig Sloss

Centra Worldwide can provide your company with a turnkey “Virtual Headquarters” Program package containing everything necessary to conduct successful long-term business operations in North America.  All needed warehousing, inventory management, transaction processing, order fulfillment, financial/back office operations, call center services (customer service & transaction support), as well as forward and reverse logistics management, can be provided as a fully integrated set of services from a single outsource provider.

For accuracy and efficiency, Centra Worldwide employs the latest web-based software applications, which have the added benefit of providing each client with real-time, online visibility into all facets of the outsourced operations.

If engaged, Centra Worldwide’s personnel would act transparently on your company’s behalf, providing both the look and functionality of an impressive and efficient North American corporate headquarters.

You manage the sales, marketing, engineering, and manufacturing ---- and let Centra Worldwide do the rest!

In addition to the turnkey programs, Centra Worldwide also offers a la carte programs that can augment any existing operations and infrastructure.  In either program, processes can be customized, as needed, to match your corporate culture, standards, and style.  And in most cases, programs such as these can be fully operational in a matter of just two weeks or less, allowing an emerging firm to represent a full complement of corporate services and functionality many months sooner than the traditional pathways ---- and at a fraction of the cost of traditional fixed expense business models.

• Product warehousing & inventory management
