Nippon Express cuts Osaka-Dalian transport time with new 'Dalian Express'

 KUALA LUMPUR, April 9 -- Nippon Express Co Ltd recently launched ‘Dalian Express’ high-speed ocean cargo transport service between Osaka, Japan, and Dalian (Liaoning Province), China.

According to a statement, ‘Dalian Express’ is an intermodal transport service using ferry transport between Osaka Port in Japan and Busan Port in South Korea as well as between Incheon Port in South Korea and Dalian Port in China, and truck transport within South Korea between Busan Port and Incheon Port.

The trial runs first undertaken in November last year demonstrated that smooth connections between the two ferry routes and domestic trucking within South Korea could reduce transport time, and that adjusted ferry departure times would allow for three weekly sailings.

Given the uncertainty surrounding container vessels due to the coronavirus pandemic, the ‘Dalian Express’ won praise from customers from the very first trial run for its speed and reliability, and it has thus been developed into a commercial service product.

Features of the new service enable customers to take advantage of seamless transport with the reassurance of knowing that Nippon Express is in charge from start to finish; transport time is one to three days shorter than for container vessel transport; and, larger volumes can be shipped at lower cost than air cargo transport, among others.

On future plans, Nippon Express will strive to improve the convenience of both import and export services and make them more widely available to globalcustomers, all the while developing new consolidated shipping products and otherwise enhancing its level of service.
