Panalpina launched three less-than-container-load weekly ocean services from Asia to Rotterdam, as the major forwarder grows its business on major Asia-Europe trade lanes, the Journal of Commerce reported.
The services provided by Pantainer Express Line, the company’s non-vessel-operating common carrier, connects Shanghai to Rotterdam, Hong Kong to Rotterdam, and Singapore to Rotterdam. The new services will complement Panalpina’s services into Antwerp, one of its LCL hubs, and reduce transit times by two to four days, the Swiss company said.
“The newly launched direct services to Rotterdam are only a few of many more to come,” said Carsten Meyer, Panalpina’s global head of ocean freight LCL.
