Mitsubishi Logistics America Corp (MLAC) is a licensed U.S. customs broker operating under CBP filer code HG4, with its Los Angeles Branch located at 19310 Pacific Gateway Drive, Suite 200, Torrance, CA 90502. Torrance sits at the heart of the South Bay logistics corridor — minutes from the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which together handle more containerized cargo than any other port complex in North America. This positioning gives MLAC a structural advantage for importers clearing goods through the LA/LB gateway.
As the American subsidiary of Mitsubishi Logistics Corporation, a major Japanese logistics provider, MLAC brings deep institutional knowledge of Japan-origin supply chains and Asia-Pacific trade lanes. Importers sourcing automotive parts, electronics, machinery, consumer goods, and industrial equipment from Japan, South Korea, China, Vietnam, and other Asia-Pacific markets benefit from the firm's familiarity with those origin markets and the corresponding US import requirements, including proper HTS code classification and admissibility review.
MLAC's customs brokerage services cover the full entry lifecycle. This includes customs entry preparation and filing through the CBP ACE portal, importer security filing (ISF) submission to meet ISF filing requirements under the 10+2 rule, continuous customs bond procurement, and coordination with FDA for regulated imports — the firm holds an active FDA filer designation, as reflected in federal filer evaluation records. Importers of food, beverages, and other FDA-regulated commodities will find MLAC equipped to navigate agency admissibility requirements.
Beyond clearance at Los Angeles, MLAC maintains operational presence in Jamaica, NY (near JFK Airport), expanding its ability to serve importers using East Coast air and ocean entry points. This multi-port footprint is valuable for companies with diversified import programs.
For importers subject to customs compliance audits or seeking to evaluate their HTS code classifications against the USITC tariff database, MLAC's experienced staff can assist with classification reviews and ACE portal management. Companies exploring duty drawback programs or evaluating Section 321 de minimis eligibility for e-commerce shipments should inquire directly about available advisory services.
