The new weekly services are from Keelung, Taiwan and Busan, South Korea to Wroclaw. Panalpina said the new services reduce transit times by two days.
“Wroclaw’s geographical position and its developed road infrastructure make Poland’s fourth biggest city a strategic location for optimal access to Lower and Upper Silesia, which are the most advanced industrial regions in Poland,” the company said in a statement. “The two new guaranteed weekly services have been launched to meet increased customer demands, especially in the automotive, high-tech and telecom sectors.”
Transit times to Wroclaw from Keelung and Busan will be 32 and 38 days, respectively, with cargo handled at Panalpina’s LCL hub in Hamburg.
“The new services are part of Panalpina’s long term strategy to grow business on key Asia trade lanes, especially on the Far East westbound, transpacific eastbound, intra-Asia, Asia to Latin America and Asia to Middle East trades,” the company said.
