Six ways to ship from China, with real transit times and the routes we run every week.
China Sourcing (1688)
Buy from 1688, ship to your door
You find the supplier on 1688.com — we handle the rest. We quote the goods, pay the factory, inspect at our Shenzhen warehouse, consolidate multiple suppliers into one shipment, and ship.
You get one invoice and one tracked shipment. No paying five factories and no guessing on freight.

Weekly block trains on the New Eurasian Land Bridge
We book space on China–Europe block trains from the main inland hubs. Rail sits between air and sea — faster than ocean, cheaper than air — and suits cargo that needs a predictable, fixed schedule.
After the train reaches Europe we arrange onward trucking, or clear it and deliver door-to-door.
We move air cargo from Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Shanghai airports. Choose next-flight-out for urgent shipments, or a consolidated service to cut the cost on smaller consignments.
With the Red Sea situation still adding weeks to ocean transit, many customers move mid-value goods by air to keep stock flowing.

Routes

Terms

Best for
Urgent, high-value or low-weight cargo — electronics, samples, spare parts
We hold accounts with DHL, FedEx, UPS and EMS and pass the discounts on to you. We collect from your supplier or our Shenzhen warehouse and hand the shipment to the courier the same day — to nearly every country in the world.
We ship what others refuse. Branded goods, batteries (built-in and power banks), liquids, cosmetics and other sensitive items are our specialty. We classify, declare and pack them correctly so they clear customs instead of being held at the border.
Weekly consolidations to the main hubs in Europe, the US and the Middle East. Ship a full container, or share one to keep costs down on smaller volumes.
With carriers still rerouting around the Cape, we book space early and watch the schedule so your cargo doesn't sit at the port.

Reefers and special equipment are available on request.
