Partners & Finance

Garland & Zhang operates within a network of global manufacturers, logistics providers, financial institutions, and Free Trade Zone authorities. These partnerships allow us to move materials efficiently across borders while providing transparent, cost-effective procurement pathways for U.S. government contractors and private-sector clients.

Our primary logistics integration is through world-leading bonded freight and multimodal transport providers, which manage secure, compliant movements from origin factories abroad through international Free Trade Zones under controlled, tariff-free structures.

• Bonded export transport from origin manufacturers
• Ocean, rail, and road routing within secure logistics corridors
• Integrated customs processing at international FTZs
• Seamless connection to FTZ entry points
• Proven reliability for large-scale commodity and construction-material flows

Garland & Zhang maintains direct supply relationships with global manufacturers engaged in producing construction materials, agricultural commodities, minerals, and industrial components. These relationships support our core model: delivering goods directly from the factory to government and private contractor job sites.

By sourcing directly at origin, we eliminate layers of markup, reduce overall landed cost, and ensure consistent quality for contractors serving government agencies and large private-sector projects.

We work with financial institutions that specialize in international trade finance, bonded logistics, private equity, and other credit structures that support Free Trade Zone operations. These institutions help facilitate the movement of goods across borders, reduce financial friction, and provide stable terms for. contractors working in tightly budgeted environments.

Our partnerships include organizations capable of providing credit assurance, letters of credit, performance security, and banking relationships tailored to cross-border, FTZ-linked supply chains.

Garland & Zhang coordinates closely with Free Trade Zone regulators. This ensures that materials travel through tariff-free and compliance-secured pathways from origin to job site.

• Alignment with U.S. FTZ regulations under the Alternative Site Framework
• Coordination with export FTZ authorities abroad
• Customs-compliant bonded transport across multiple jurisdictions
• Documentation support for contractors requiring federal procurement clarity
• Future expansion into partner trade zones worldwide

In the U.S., as a HUBZone-certified entity, Garland & Zhang is positioned to work directly with federal contractors and SBA-designated partners who seek competitive pricing while fulfilling procurement obligations. Our global FTZ-enabled model supports lower-cost acquisition strategies aligned with HUBZone objectives.

Financial transparency is central to our operations. All procurement, transport, and FTZ activities are documented for auditability and compliance with federal procurement requirements. We maintain clear records across manufacturing, bonded transport, FTZ entry, customs processing, and final delivery.

This level of transparency allows contracting officers and procurement officials to accurately evaluate costs, timelines, and sourcing — a requirement for federal acquisition programs.

We anticipate significant expansion as more global partners adopt FTZ frameworks and seek reciprocal global market access. Garland & Zhang’s international network is designed to evolve rapidly, incorporating new manufacturers, logistics firms, and trade-zone authorities as we scale.

Our objective is to create a unified, global supply-chain architecture that supports a new era of clean, efficient, tariff-reduced movement of goods.
