About Us

F&B Customs LTD combines Swiss experience, Italian professionalism and precision applied to the UK customs clearance process. At a time of great uncertainty due to Brexit, the solution to the confusion at the customs border and the kilometre-long queues of lorries in the south of England was inspired by Switzerland.

Our team is committed to bringing Swiss expertise, Italian professionalism and precision to the UK customs clearance process. Our aim is to provide an effective and fast solution to overcome the challenges of the post-Brexit customs clearance process.

Franzosini and Butti F&B LTD is the result of over 40 years of partnership in improving customs clearance between the EU and Switzerland, and 30 years of experience in the UK. Just like Switzerland, the UK is now outside the EU and faces similar customs clearance challenges. Our team is extremely familiar with the UK’s post-Brexit customs clearance needs.

We are committed to providing a personalised and reliable service for our clients’ customs clearance needs, regardless of the sector in which they operate. We are experts in handling import and export documents for EU, EFTA and non-EU countries, and offer consultancy and support services for all stages of the customs clearance process.

F&B Customs LTD is the ideal partner for your business. We are here to offer customs clearance solutions tailored to your specific needs, combined with Italian professionalism and expertise, and Swiss precision.
