Welke Customs Brokers Ltd

Welke Customs Brokers Ltd. was founded by Rolf Welke and his son Bernard. Rolf Welke had spent 35 years in the transportation and customs industry prior to starting Welke. He is a past Chairman of the Canadian Importers Association and served as a consultant to the Canadian Customs Review Task Force during the Tokyo round of GATT negotiations. Rolf is now enjoying his retirement while his sons, Bernard and Peter, continue to develop a unique concept within our industry., Welke Customs began as a Customs Broker catering to the time-sensitive newspaper and magazine industry. The need for quick, accurate customs clearances challenged the firm to develop new methods of conducting business. Increased investment in highly-qualified staff laid the foundation for a strong, service-oriented customs brokerage business., The tradition of responsive customer service continued as Welke answered customer demands for a unified transportation service. In 1994 W.C.B. Freight Services Ltd. (now Welke Global Logistics Ltd.) began operations as a licensed load broker. Providing companies with the same level of trustworthy service has enabled our clients to transport cargo at competitive costs without the additional expense of hiring an in-house logistics department., The results have been tremendous! Firms as diverse as electronics and furniture companies have discovered the Welke difference. However, the real measure of our success is apparent in the fact that we still retain the original relationships, established at our inception, with the magazine and newspaper industry. The tradition of service that started in 1985 continues to expand as more companies discover there really is a difference!
