Kerry Logistics has launched a new weekly scheduled Less Than Container Load (LCL) rail freight service between Duisburg and Shanghai. The company is running the service via the Yiwu terminal in the Yangtze River Delta, China, using its own consolidation containers.
Shipments have already been made using the new service, which offers weekly departures on Friday eastbound and Wednesday westbound. This additional service option for east- and westbound shipments enhances Kerry Logistics’ existing Full Container Load (FCL) and LCL services, offering a transit time of 16 days for westbound cargo, and 21 days eastbound.
“Our proven track record and unparalleled service network in Asia, together with our local expertise throughout Europe, promise that we can now offer our customers a flexible, cost-effective solution on this route for cargoes from industrial freight, down to smaller e-commerce commodities,” Thomas Blank, Managing Director of Europe, Kerry Logistics, said.
