Our Business

Service

From sourcing to delivery —
and the shop floor behind it.

Negotiating with the maker, importing within the law, clearing customs, delivering domestically. When a different company handles each leg, responsibility and lead times both blur. INCAPE runs every leg of the chain itself, and takes on the website, the sales material and the logistics system as well. You can discuss both the goods and the means of selling them with one company.

DetailDigital solutions in detailWe take on what sits around the trade as well

Buying the goods achieves nothing without somewhere to sell them and a system to sell with. We apply what we have learned in distribution directly to building websites, sales material and software. Goods and shop floor, from one company.
