Incoterms® 2020 has been written and will be published later this year. The ICC (International Chamber of Commerce) does training all over the world and this event will be held in Charleston, SC on November 19, 2019. Frank Reynolds, the USA representative to the ICC for updating Incoterms for 30+ years, will be doing a seminar in Charleston on November 19. Frank is the country’s lead expert on this subject and his seminars are very entertaining and thorough. He is the author of Incoterms For Americans®. I’ve attached a flyer with the event details. We hope you can make it to Charleston for this important event for every exporter and importer. For more information, go to https://www.incoterms-for-americans.com/.
All JSJ offices will be open on Friday 9/6/2019. Local ports should be operational also, many with extended gate operations over the weekend. Thank you for your patience during this time.
Happy Labor Day everyone .
As of today the governors of FL, GA & SC have ordered mandatory evacuations for the coastal counties. As such, JAX, SAV & CHS offices will be CLOSED on TUES & WED. Given the slow speed of the storm, we may have delayed openings on THURS. Please monitor our website, Twitter (@JohnSJamesCo) and Facebook for more updates.
