Employer Introduction

Commodity Forwarders, Inc. was incorporated in 1974 by Alfred Kuehlewind. It started as a one-man office in Los Angeles, specializing in perishable products; primarily strawberries to Europe, via air. Since then Los Angeles has moved beyond air export, into ocean export, domestic air freight, imports and distribution services. The Los Angeles location has allowed clients to source product from and distribute product to Mexico, Arizona, Central and Southern California. Los Angeles also acts as a reliable transit point of South Pacific goods for Eastern United States distribution and European Transshipping.

We have since opened offices across the country from Hawaii, San Francisco, Anchorage, Miami, Seattle, New York and Chicago. These offices have allowed us to expand the number of perishable products that we ship along with adding proteins and frozen commodities. The new office locations have also given us better access to different consumer markets and improved our exports/imports of goods.

Our agent relationships in the U.S. along with our relationships with logistic providers Europe, Middle East, South Pacific and Asia have allowed us to to handle customized temperature sensitive cargo programs throughout the United States and work on door to door programs when requested and better understand the changes in worldwide commerce. 

Commodity Forwarders has remained focused on maintaining relationships with financially secure logistics market leaders that have a perishable and time sensitive sense of urgency, not just as their mission statement but in performance as well.
