New wagonload from Xi’an to Hamburg
We are supplementing the existing rail transport routes to China. Together with our local partner, we have launched another offer for LCL shipments by train from Xi’an to Hamburg/Duisburg with immediate effect: the journey of only 15 – 17 days means that the goods are not subject to long transit times, offering considerable advantages over ocean freight.
A favourable starting rate also makes the service very attractive compared to air freight – not to mention the good carbon footprint. We can also organise pre-carriage and on-carriage on request. Please feel free to contact us by e-mail at rail@kopf-luebben.com for additional information.
