Singapore has a highly developed free-market economy – so well developed, in fact, that it ranks second freest in the 2018 economy index! With an open and mostly corruption-free business environment, it is known as the easiest place in the world to do business. It is no wonder that this nation is one of the most prosperous in the Asia-Pacific region, with huge amounts of goods passing through it every year.
Relying heavily on export and refining imported goods, Singapore is the UK’s largest trade partner in south-east Asia. With a shared language and Commonwealth ties, it remains an attractive destination for UK companies, with over a thousand UK businesses currently representing themselves in Singapore. It also has a sizeable number of British residents – currently around 30,000.With such strong personal and business links with this prosperous and economically attractive country, it's no wonder that the demand for courier services to Singapore is consistently high. It can be ever so slightly more challenging to ship to Singapore than to Europe, for example. The distance between the two countries – almost 7,000 miles – and customs duties can make shipping expensive. There have also been cases of parcels going missing when not shipped via a fully tracked service. At ParcelBroker, we both ensure the safe delivery of your parcel, and provide you with the best value for money on your shipment. Whether you are sending a personal gift or a commercial shipment, we will make the process effortless.
