KART starts Shenzhen-Hanoi LTL service

   Kerry Asia Road Transport (KART) has started a twice-weekly less-than-truckload service connecting Shenzhen and Hanoi, through its ASEAN-China road network.
   The LTL service will initially connect the industrial cities in southern China and northern Vietnam, providing shippers and logistics services providers with a fixed-day dedicated service. Kerry plans to expand the service to other city pairs in the future.
   “There is demand from shippers for a service that matches air freight for transit time and is more cost effective. By road we can deliver to the heart of Hanoi and Shenzhen which is much quicker than by ocean,” said Alex Ng, general manager of KART.
   The new service will depart Shenzhen for Hanoi on Tuesdays and Thursdays and Hanoi to Shenzhen on Wednesdays and Fridays. KART has also extended its door-to-door connections in China and Vietnam through its domestic courier services, ensuring expedited delivery throughout both countries.
