Why not purchase these items via your company, batch them up into pallet-sized shipments, then arrange for commercial air transportation? You can then provide commercial invoices, cover any duty and taxes, have insurance to cover the goods from loss or damage during transport, and (bonus!) comply with the importation laws of the destination country.
I bet that would work out to be less than $25/item and you wouldn't have to count on mules to do your legwork for you.
It might even work out well as a UPS/Fedex competitor, saving shipping costs by batching shipments together and allowing you to expand into other countries. Though I'd be very surprised if this isn't already a solved shipping/logistics problem. It's not like transporting items between countries hasn't been around for centuries already; although existing solutions don't have the novelty your company brings to the table: offloading legal compliance onto your mules.
