Bespoke Handling is proud to confirm a new location at Silverstone circuit, offering an expansion of its ATA carnet production and delivery service, and underlining the firm’s commitment to supporting the motorsport industry. The dedicated facility is adjacent to the famous motor circuit, and includes an express service to teams and suppliers for the industry which is notoriously time-sensitive.
“We are very proud that Bespoke Handling is one of only a selected few logistics companies in the UK with the facilities in place to print and issue ATA carnets in-house,” explained Fabian Daffern of Bespoke Handling. “We have worked hard to fine-tune the process to mitigate against delays, and ensure we can support the urgent nature of motorsport. The service we provide means all documents can be created and available within hours. The addition of this second site, which is located at the home of British motorsport, and conveniently on the doorstep of many race teams and suppliers to the motorsport industry, means we are able to provide further added value and speed to a pivotal service which affects everyone on the grid.”
So, what is an ATA carnet, and what does this new location for Bespoke Handling actually mean?
An ATA carnet is an international customs document which permits the temporary export and import of goods into a country for up to a one-year period. The advantages of an ATA carnet are its convenience of use at the border, providing a cost-effective way to make multiple trips abroad throughout the year, to more than 80 participating countries. ATA carnets can be used for all professional equipment, as well as goods being exhibited and commercial samples.
Bespoke Handling specialises in the production, delivery and coordination of ATA carnet documentation required for all international logistics, and the team can provide advice to ensure the correct paperwork is created and managed from beginning to end. A rapid quoting system and efficient delivery are all part of the Bespoke Handling service, with production all managed in-house. This is coupled with comprehensive support offered throughout the process, and a resolution service for all concerns or complications, including for paperwork raised by third parties. This independent advice on carnets and carnet claims can help organise all aspects of the paperwork involved with the ATA carnet process, including Certificates of Location with HM Revenue & Customs.
The new Bespoke Handling office is now open at New Rookery Farm, Silverstone. This new location adds further support to the British motorsport industry, with Bespoke Handling also offering discount on its services to all active Members of the British Racing Drivers’ Club (BRDC).
