SANTA BARBARA, CA, Aug. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Landmark Global has expanded its international delivery solution to all countries around the globe. This new service offering extends Landmark Global's reach internationally while maintaining important benefits such as track and trace of parcels, pre-paid customs clearance and returns logistics.

A full suite of e-commerce services accompany this international expansion including: hosted check-out, landed cost calculations, both duty paid and duty unpaid models and customs collect. These solutions allow merchants the flexibility of engaging in as much or as little of the foreign transaction that the company desires.

"The reporting, integrity and data management responsibilities will continue to allow Landmark Global to provide best-in-class parcel solutions." Delivery standards are 3 to 8 business days to most International points.
