About Us
Since 1978 Flegenheimer International, Inc. has been arranging customs clearance for perishable cargo in Southern California.
William A. Flegenheimer, President and C.E.O., will meet your plane or ship as it arrives and coordinate customs inspection, Food and Drug, U.S.D.A. and any other governmental requirements involved in expediting your shipment.
According to Bill Flegenheimer, the customs brokerage business is a business of details. "You have to be a 'worrywart' and know what you're doing or you may have a shipment refused or seized. The customs brokers must be well informed at all times about the rules and regulations of customs clearance because they can suddenly change without prior notification."
