About

Alba Wheels UP International, LLC is a US-based company specializing in logistics and supply chain solutions for trade-sensitive products, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards while facilitating efficient import and export processes. Alba Wheels UP International, LLC offers logistics and supply chain solutions tailored to trade-sensitive products. Founded in 1949, the firm has remained focused on providing customs brokerage and consulting services. Currently headquartered in the US, the company was acquired by Southfield Capital in March 2021, which emphasized its potential for growth.


The CEO of the company is Damien Stile. Alba Wheels Up International, LLC specializes in providing comprehensive logistics and supply chain solutions tailored to trade-sensitive products across various industries. Their core offerings include customs brokerage services, customs consulting, and logistics management, which encompass airfreight, ocean freight, rail freight, and trucking. These services are designed to navigate the complexities of international trade, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements from agencies such as the FDA, USDA, and CBP.


Their client base includes manufacturers, retailers, and e-commerce companies that require seamless and efficient import and export processes for products ranging from consumer goods to industrial components. The company operates on a national scale, serving markets across North America, with a particular focus on regions that have significant trade activity and regulatory scrutiny. Alba Wheels Up International generates revenue through a combination of service fees associated with customs brokerage, consulting, and logistics services. Typical transactions involve B2B collaborations where clients engage the company for its expertise in navigating compliance and supply chain challenges.


The firm may structure its pricing around service agreements that include fixed fees for specific services or ongoing partnerships that involve retainer models. Key offerings such as customs clearance and trade compliance consulting are crucial revenue drivers, as clients rely on these services to ensure adherence to regulatory frameworks and efficient movement of goods. The company's operations focus on delivering quantifiable returns on investment for clients, enhancing their competitiveness in the market while maintaining transparency in pricing and service delivery. Following the acquisition by Southfield Capital in March 2021, Alba Wheels UP International, LLC plans to leverage its growth potential by expanding its service offerings and enhancing its market reach.


The company aims to introduce new logistics solutions designed to meet emerging trade regulations and client needs. Specific geographic regions targeted for expansion include the Southeast and Western US markets, anticipated to be pursued by the end of 2023. The funding from the recent acquisition will support these initiatives by enabling investment in technology and infrastructure enhancements.
