DHL launches new LCL services between China and South America

DHL has announced the launch of its direct Less than Container Load (LCL) services from Shanghai, China to Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Valparaiso, Chile enhancing its connectivity between South America and China. In 2007, the Shanghai Port and Valparaiso Port signed an agreement to become sister ports. Both cities are important industrial and transportation hubs, offering easy access to other ports and inland cities in South America through established road and rail networks.

“The launch of the direct LCL services from Shanghai to Valparaiso and Buenos Aires signals our commitment to help customers stay ahead of the game. As a global trade facilitator, DHL’s LCL services serve as a vital link between China and key markets in South America and help businesses extend their global reach in the most cost-efficient manner while still benefiting from our service flexibility and reliability,” said Kelvin Leung, CEO, DHL Global Forwarding, North Asia Pacific.

Danmar Lines, DHL Global Forwarding’s in-house carrier, operates the new weekly direct LCL services. Customers can expect their shipments to arrive in Buenos Aires and Valparaiso within 28 and 30 days respectively, with time savings of up to 15 days as cargo is shipped directly from Shanghai to Buenos Aires and Valparaiso instead of being routed via Hong Kong. DHL currently offers 19 direct LCL services between Asia and South America.
