With cross-border complexity and geopolitical disruption reshaping the global trade landscape, SCALA’s new offering delivers comprehensive support for companies striving to remain compliant while optimising their supply chain operations.
The service is headed by SCALA’s International Customs and Logistics Consultant Andrew King, who brings deep expertise in end-to-end logistics solutions, aligning them with customs duty and tax regulations. It is designed to address the most pressing compliance issues facing organisations today, including:
- Navigating the shifting landscape of trade tariffs, including recent escalations between the EU, US, and China.
Maintaining up-to-date and accurate customs documentation and declarations.
Mitigating risk related to sanctions, embargoes, and supplier integrity.
Preventing “double duty” scenarios exacerbated by the UK’s exit from the EU.
“Trade compliance is no longer just an operational requirement – it’s a strategic imperative,” said King. “Businesses are facing heightened scrutiny, complex audits, and increased fines for non-compliance. Our new service equips clients with the expert knowledge and practical support they need to navigate this environment successfully.”
Backed by SCALA’s proven track record of combining high-quality technical expertise with practical management experience, the new service provides tailored compliance audits, risk assessments, process optimisation, and ongoing regulatory monitoring.

In response to emerging EU regulations like the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and deforestation-free product rules (EUDR), along with the ongoing digitisation of trade, SCALA’s new service helps businesses stay compliant and competitive in a fast-changing landscape. With rising tariffs, sanctions risks, and geopolitical disruption, it is designed to futureproof operations and protect against financial and reputational damage.
SCALA continues to lead the way in supporting businesses to optimise and futureproof their operations, helping clients boost the resilience of their global supply chains in an increasingly uncertain world.
