UPS has expanded its UPS Preferred LCL Ocean Freight service to 10 additional Asian ports.
The less-than-container-load service allegedly provides up to 40% faster port-to-door delivery to the United States for LCL shipments while still delivering the economic advantages of ocean freight.
UPS has just begun offering the Preferred LCL service to customers shipping to the United States from the Chinese ports of Shanghai, Shenzhen, Ningbo and Xiamen. The service will expand to origins in Busan and Taipei in March of this year and to Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Singapore, and Hong Kong in April.
