Connections, man. Logistics is all about connections - human network. Moving goods involves a lot of territorial laws, tariffs, warehousing, and people to monitor them. If you are not going to move the goods by yourself, you will have to trust a lot of people. You really need connections. So, the best way to facilitate easy flow of goods from one location to another is to build connections along the route. Choose dependable and trustworthy people. Also, learn about the customs law of the location (and how to get around it sometimes). LOL.
