THE LANESWE RUN
Ten gateways, eight ocean lanes, and a named person at both ends of every one of them.
Drag the globe. Each arc is a lane we book on, and the figure beside a moving one is the published port to port transit.
Ten gateways, and what we do at each
Three of these are our own desks. The rest are agents we have worked with for years, named on your booking so you know who is handling the ground.
| Code | Gateway | Country | What we do there |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shanghai | China | Own booking desk, weekly consolidation | |
| Singapore | Singapore | Own booking desk, transhipment control | |
| Jebel Ali | United Arab Emirates | Partner agent, bonded storage | |
| Rotterdam | Netherlands | Own office, clearance and linehaul | |
| Los Angeles | United States | Partner agent, drayage and clearance | |
| New York | United States | Partner agent, clearance | |
| Douala | Cameroon | Head office, clearance and last mile | |
| Sydney | Australia | Partner agent, quarantine handling | |
| Santos | Brazil | Partner agent, reefer and breakbulk | |
| Durban | South Africa | Partner agent, inland rail |
Eight lanes we know to the berth
Published port to port transit and sailing frequency. A transhipment lane means the box is lifted twice, which is usually where a schedule loses its week.
| Lane | Service | Sailings | Port to port |
|---|---|---|---|
| Direct | Weekly | 16 days | |
| Direct | Weekly | 32 days | |
| Direct | Twice weekly | 9 days | |
| Direct | Weekly | 18 days | |
| Direct | Weekly | 11 days | |
| Transhipment | Weekly | 21 days | |
| Transhipment | Fortnightly | 14 days | |
| Direct | Weekly | 12 days |
Everywhere else
Freight outside these lanes moves on partner space. We will quote it, and we will tell you when somebody else knows the corridor better than we do.
Air, worldwide
Consolidated and direct capacity through the gateways above, and charter where the date cannot move.
Inland Africa and Europe
Road and rail from Douala and Rotterdam, with the border formalities handled by the same team that booked the sea leg.
Lanes we do not run
We will say so, and point you at a forwarder who does. A lane we book twice a year is a lane we will get wrong.
