The manufacturing of these products is handled from different plants spread across multiple countries around the world.
With its manufacturing operations across continents, the U.S. operations handle multiple freights of product lines originating from the South East Asian countries to the U.S. shores. One of the key processes after every freight is handling the invoicing, payments, and receipt of these
