KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 10 -- Nippon Express (China) Co Ltd (NX China), a Nippon Express Holdings Inc Group company, has teamed up with SIPG Logistics Co Ltd (SIPGL), becoming the first forwarder to offer international consolidated transshipment service (transshipping containers and reconsolidating shipments) in Shanghai.
SIPGL is an affiliate of Shanghai International Port (Group) Co Ltd (SIPG), according to a statement.
The Shanghai-based international consolidated transshipment service shortens lead times and reduces costs by utilising the Port of Shanghai, which serves more than 500 routes to destinations worldwide.
This is for efficient loading of transshipment cargo from countries in Southeast Asia and elsewhere as well as export cargo from within mainland China for customers shipping to destinations for which space is difficult to secure.
Container transshipment and cargo reconsolidation in Shanghai previously had to be carried out at a forwarder's bonded warehouse, requiring extra time to relocate cargo and complete customs procedures.
NX China has collaborated with SIPGL to develop a new transshipment service that uses SIPGL's dedicated warehouse adjacent to the Shanghai CY, eliminating the need to pass cargo via a forwarder's bonded warehouse, and reducing lead times and costs associated with transshipment.
While it is currently difficult to secure space on North American routes, collaboration with SIPGL makes it possible to utilise space on North American routes arranged between SIPG and shipping companies as a BCP solution in the face of space shortages on routes to North America from Southeast Asia and other regions.
