Kuehne + Nagel Poland is launching an additional import connection for LCL (Less-than-Container Load) sea freight on the Shanghai – Poznań route. This route is operated twice a week to reduce the time between booking and shipment departure.
The service allows for goods to be brought to Poland within 30-33 days. Shipments are consolidated at the Kuehne + Nagel warehouse in Shanghai, from where they depart twice a week directly to Hamburg, and subsequently, the goods are transported to the warehouse in Gądki near Poznań. Local distribution is provided through the Kuehne + Nagel domestic network.
The service is focused on comprehensive shipment handling, from pickup to delivery to the final recipient (“door-to-door”), including customs clearance, insurance, and online ordering.
The Kuehne + Nagel LCL service provides flexible solutions for shipments of up to 20 cubic meters. The additional line from Shanghai complements the service of direct LCL connections from ports in Hong Kong, Singapore, Ningbo, Yantian, and Chittagong, which are operated as an NVOCC (non-vessel operating common carrier). This service guarantees transparency of the flow of every import shipment within the network.
By using KN Login, the company’s logistics IT system, customers have the ability to check shipment status, download historical data, set up automatic notifications, and manage shipments at the order, package, and individual item level. Furthermore, the document viewing feature allows for attaching copies of bills of lading or commercial invoices.
