In Partnership, our mutual strengths complement each other to provide GRL Customers with an unrivalled experience of expediting goods from origin to destination. At our Daventry warehouse, with the goods temporarily held securely where they would offload into our ETSF (External Temporary Storage Facility). Under UK Customs Control, Customs Clear before presenting back to GRL outside the ETSF (where the goods are now in free circulation) for transfer into the trade.
CACESA’s expansion into the UK market is a testament to its commitment to investing and diversifying its business to complement its strength in the Spanish market.

What ESTF is
With ETSF located at the business sites, it accelerates the process significantly. Good’s can be taken directly to where the customs formalities can be managed electronically. Effectively this means the customs border is moved to the business premises allowing the customs declaration and logging of items ahead of the good’s arrival.
For example, a haulage or courier company with 1,000 different consignments on one truck who doesn't have time to complete that amount of declarations in the short period from leaving Europe to arriving at a UK port. With an ETSF, they can save time by filling out all -the declarations at the end destination in advance, therefore not delaying the movement of goods with queues, inspections and processing at the border.
If they wanted to put a hold on any consignment, the site operator would know immediately which goods are on hold, awaiting paperwork or physical inspection – this can also be conducted at the operator's site. An ETSF also gives HMRC and Border Force electronic visibility and audit records.
