Circuits and Cosmetics Shipment by Shine Logistics

 

Shine Logistics, a Coop member in Seoul, South Korea, has successfully completed the transportation of circuits and cosmetics to multiple destinations across China, Europe, and the United States. The shipments, which originated from South Korea’s major air and seaports, highlight the company’s capability in handling air and sea freight in a competitive market.

One of the biggest challenges in completing this project was the intense competition in the freight forwarding market. “There are a lot of competitors in this industry,” said Mr. Chung from Shine Logistics. “To win this business, we continuously monitor freight rates and offer our clients the most cost-effective solutions every month.”They shipped the circuits exclusively by air from Incheon Airport to important Chinese cities, including Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and Wuhan.

These items were carefully packed in compact boxes measuring 60 x 38 x 63 cm, requiring meticulous handling to ensure safe arrival.On the other hand, the cosmetics cargo was transported using both air and sea freight. From Incheon Airport, they coordinated air shipments to Heathrow, UK, Chicago, USA, and Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Additionally, shipments from Busan Seaport were sent via ocean freight to Southampton, UK, and Chicago, USA. The cosmetics were loaded onto pallets, typically sized at 100 x 120 x up to 150 cm, to ensure stability during transit.“We ensured that all packages were securely wrapped to prevent any box damage during transport,” Mr. Chung added. “By maintaining high packaging standards, we provided our clients with confidence in the safety of their goods.”

Congratulations to Shine Logistics for the successful execution of this shipment!
