New contract logistics warehouse in Hong Kong

DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics has relocated its previous warehouse in Hong Kong. The new site offers the logistics provider 2,800 m2 on which to carry out contract logistics services for its customers.

The new location of the DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics warehouse in Hong Kong features 500 pallet spaces and 14,000 in racks on 2,800 m².

Located in a northern district of Hong Kong, the site of the new warehouse offers strategic advantages. The facility features more than 500 pallet spaces on the ground and a further 14,000 in racks. It is staffed by a total of 17 people. The warehouse stores mainly electronic components, mechanical parts, and lighting products. In addition to warehousing, DACHSER also offers contract logistics services, such as value-added services and import/export processing, from the new Hong Kong facility. The company has also staffed the site with employees who are experts in pick & pack.

Accessibility to markets

The new warehouse benefits from its prime location, offering short regional and international transit times that allow DACHSER to quickly process goods flows between Hong Kong and major Asian capitals. “Under normal conditions, from our Hong Kong warehouse we can reach B2B and B2C customers as well as domestic airports and seaports within one hour,” says Alex Wong, Contract Logistics Manager Hong Kong at DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics.

As a free port, Hong Kong enjoys certain geographical advantages and is a major logistics hub in the Asia-Pacific region. Its proximity to the Chinese mainland also makes it a key hub for connecting Chinese manufacturers to European and US markets, while straightforward customs procedures further enhance the location’s appeal. DACHSER has been operating a warehouse specially designed for contract logistics in Hong Kong since 2014.

Emergency bunker surcharge (EBS) effective 1st June 2018
Following recent announcements, all major ocean carriers are introducing an Emergency Bunker Surcharge (EBS) for Full Container Load (FCL) and Less Container Load (LCL) shipments on all trades. DACHSER therefore sees the necessity to follow the same.
 
With effective shipping date 1st June 2018 for FCL shipments, EBS will apply to shipments on all non-US related trades; as from 1st July, 2018, EBS will also be applicable to FCL shipments on further destinations as well. For all LCL shipments the implementation date will be 1st June, 2018. EBS is implemented by ocean carriers to compensate their cost of rising bunker price which is a result of the surge in fuel price.
