The world's first guaranteed service for containerised trade is moving into Mexico, extending the reach of day-definite delivery to shippers throughout North America, the Manila Bulletin reported.
APL Logistics and Con-way Freight said their OceanGuaranteed service for less-than-container load (LCL) cargo from Asia will now reach all major metropolitan markets in Mexico.
It's the biggest expansion yet of the three-year-old program that combines ocean and truck transportation to deliver cargo to a customer's store door.
"We're already serving most of the continent with day-definite service," said APL Logistics President Jim McAdam.
"We're pleased that we can now extend OceanGuaranteed throughout North America by incorporating the very important Mexican market."
OceanGuaranteed debuted in 2006 as a China-to-US service. It expanded last year into Canada. |
