our history

MACHB Inc. was founded by Michael Andres, a Licensed Customs Broker who holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and an MBA from Florida International University. With more than 10 years of experience in the customs brokerage and logistics industry, Michael established MACHB to provide responsive, ethical, and solution-driven support for businesses navigating import and export requirements in the United States.

What began as a small family-owned operation in Miami, Florida has grown into a nationwide customs brokerage partner, supporting importers, exporters, freight forwarders, freight brokers, and logistics providers with reliable compliance and freight shipping services.

our process

Step 1: Shipment Review

We review your commodity, Harmonized Tariff classification, cargo value, and country of origin for import or export shipments.

Step 2: Power of Attorney

A signed Power of Attorney allows our licensed customs broker team to legally represent importers, exporters, and freight forwarder clients with U.S. Customs.

Step 3: Documentation Submission

Clients or their freight forwarders provide shipment documents such as Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and ISF when required.

Step 4: Filing and Clearance

Established clients and freight forwarders benefit from streamlined workflows designed for recurring shipments across the United States.
