About Laparkan

Laparkan was founded in 1983 by three Guyanese partners (John La Rose, Terrence Pariaug, and Glen Kan [Khan]) with a clear mission: to reconnect West Indians living abroad with their families in the Caribbean and Guyana. Starting in Toronto, the company quickly expanded to Guyana, New York, Miami, and the UK.

Today, it’s a major logistics force in the region, operating a state-of-the-art 160,000 sq ft warehouse in Miami and employing over 800 people. The company’s philosophy is “We Make the Difference!” and its vision is “Service based on Excellence,” ensuring total customer satisfaction.

Your Key Identifiers for Laparkan Tracking

Laparkan’s diverse logistics services use several types of identifiers. Our tracking tool is designed to accept all of them. Here’s what each identifier means:

  • Tracking Number: This is the standard identifier, most commonly used for air freight and smaller courier shipments.
  • Bill of Lading (B/L): This is the primary contract and tracking document for ocean freight. You will receive this for commercial cargo, industrial shipments, and personal effects (like barrels).
  • Warehouse Receipt: This number is generated when your goods are formally received and processed at a Laparkan warehouse (e.g., in Miami), confirming they are in Laparkan’s possession.
  • Reference Number: A customer-assigned code (like a Purchase Order number or internal job name) that can be used for tracking if it was linked to the shipment.
  • Logistics IDs (Pickup Tag, Pickup Order, Delivery Notice): These are specialized numbers used to track specific steps in the logistics chain, such as the initial collection request or a notification of a delivery attempt.
  • Third Party Tracking: An identifier from an external partner carrier that may be involved in a portion of the shipment’s journey.

Laparkan Tracking Number Formats

Laparkan’s diverse services mean it uses several types of Laparkan tracking numbers. Our Laparkan tracking tool is designed to recognize all of them:

  • Bill of Lading (B/L): The main document for ocean freight. It’s both a contract and a tracking ID for cargo, barrels, and commercial shipments.
  • Air Waybill (AWB) / Tracking Number: The standard ID used for all shipments sent via air freight or express courier.
  • Warehouse Receipt Number: This ID is generated by Laparkan’s system (e.g., in Miami) and confirms your goods are in their possession.
  • Reference Number: A non-Laparkan number (like a PO or booking number) that you can use if it was linked to the shipment.

Solving Common Tracking Issues

If your Laparkan tracking number isn’t working or the status seems stuck, here are a few common solutions:

  • Check the Number: You may have a Bill of Lading number but are entering it as a standard Laparkan tracking number, or vice-versa. Ensure you are using the correct code from your documents.
  • Wait for the First Scan: After dropping off cargo, it can take 24-48 hours for it to be processed at the warehouse and receive its first “Warehouse Receipt” scan.
  • Normal Ocean Transit: If your status is “In Transit” for a long time (a week or more), this is normal for ocean freight.
  • Customs Hold: A status like “Awaiting Clearance” means the shipment is with local customs authorities, not lost.
