Internаtiоnаl Cоsmоpolitаn is a company that sells an enormous amount of fine jewelry worldwide from its headquarters in Paris, France. Presently 10% of their revenues come from sales in the United States. International Cosmopolitan would like to grow the business by 50% over the next three years. Presently, most of their product is kept in an owned warehouse in France. While the shipments to United States will always be relatively small in size due to the cost and nature of the product, International Cosmopolitan would still like to take advantage of any possible distribution efficiencies by sending their shipments to a distribution center in United States that can then package their small shipments with other jewelry shipments headed towards common retailers and/or wholesalers.
