Houston-area companies are navigating an increasingly volatile global supply chain environment shaped by shifting tariffs, regulatory changes, labor shortages, port congestion, and fluctuating transportation capacity. In this climate, efficient and compliant logistics operations have become a critical competitive advantage rather than a back-office function.
Texas Global Services, a Spring-based international freight forwarder, positions itself as a strategic partner for businesses navigating this complexity. The family-owned company offers end-to-end logistics solutions to help importers and exporters manage risk, avoid delays, and maintain visibility throughout the shipping process.
With more than two decades of industry experience, the leadership team emphasizes that modern freight forwarding is as much about foresight and communication as it is about transportation. Founder and President Diana Stinson built the company around accountability and transparency after years in an industry where minor oversights could lead to major downstream disruptions.
Texas Global Services supports a wide range of shipping needs, including ocean freight, air freight, containerized and breakbulk cargo, domestic and international trucking, hazardous materials transport, and urgent hand-carry shipments. The firm also provides export documentation and compliance support, which often makes the difference between smooth customs clearance and costly border delays.
Beyond execution, the company provides advisory services to clients by monitoring regulatory developments, transportation policy shifts, and industry trends that affect global trade. Through ongoing communication and proactive updates, clients receive real-time insights rather than reactive explanations after problems occur.
Strategically located near the Port of Houston and Bush Intercontinental Airport, Texas Global Services combines local expertise with an international partner network spanning Europe, Asia, and Latin America. This global reach allows Houston-based businesses to secure reliable capacity and routing as they expand into new markets or manage complex supply chains.
As global trade continues to evolve, the firm positions itself not just as a freight forwarder but as a long-term logistics advisor focused on helping businesses stay resilient, informed, and competitive in uncertain conditions.
