DHL GLOBAL Forwarding has announced the on-time
completion of German consumer electronics manufacturer Medion's first multimodal
rail delivery from Taiwan to Europe.
The
Lenovo
unit was the first to try DHL's rail service from Xiamen, which cuts shipping
time by half compared to ocean freight and costs by two-thirds compared to air
freight.
Makers
of smartphones, laptops, personal computers and video cameras in Germany,
Medion's products are distributed across Europe, the UK, US, Canada and Asia.
Taiwan
to Xiamen products moved by sea and then by rail journey through Chengdu to
Lodz in Poland, thence to Germany.
Said
DHL
chief Steve Huang: "As 'Belt and Road' comes into force, we expect
rail to undergo a renaissance for European and Chinese enterprises,
particularly those working with electronics and manufacturing hubs along our
routes like Taichung and Xiamen."
