TOMAX LOGISTICS - NEW EXPORT CONSOLIDATION SERVICE TOMAX LOGISTICS is excited to launch a brand new, never seen before, export consolidation service offering the lowest pricing in the market servicing the Asian region.
This new service offers trans-shipping via Shenzhen (Shekou) as opposed to other services via Singapore or Hong Kong. The benefit of trans-shipping via Shekou is easier, faster and cheaper access to Chinese destinations, as well as easy access to the rest of Asia.
Trans-shipping in China has not been possible before and has been made available only to this LCL program offered by Tomax Logistics.
This is purely a wholesale service for forwarders to take advantage of, and will not be marketed to direct exporters. Services start in July and will begin with Asian cargo only, but will shortly expand to cover the rest of the world.
For bookings or more information:
