Business Question

identify a product of interest to you and find out what it would
take to either import a container load of that good from the foreign country in which it is made to

Springfield, Missouri, or to export a container load of that good from where it is made in the United States

to some foreign buyer. Finally, you will write a detailed chronological report explaining every aspect of the

logistics process for the movement of these goods.

Your final report should include all documentation you are able to secure from various sources while

researching your objective, such as: Supplier bids, quoted INCOTERMS, shipping quotes or estimates,

customs costs, financing costs, loading, unloading, ground transport, warehousing or storage. Provide

detailed information about each of the carriers involved and a due diligence report on the credibility of the

supplier and transporters including a step by step timeline for the entire shipment and a detailed financial

report incorporating all expected costs.

When approaching suppliers and carriers for information, you may find that they are not as willing to spend

time helping students. You may need to use your
selling skills as marketing students (remember the selling
process???), the first step is developing rapport, not asking for stuff!!!
There are a ton of resources on
the Internet. Heres one idea for you. Check out this web-site

You should have a significant number (15-20+) of outside sources in this research paper
