NYK enhances inland transportation service in China for finished cars
NYK Logistics (China) has ordered 100 car trailers to meet the inland transportation needs of China’s car market – which is now the largest in the world. After this procurement, the company will have 700 car trailers at its disposal, and will rank among the leading foreign-capitalised companies providing finished car transport services. The NYK Group has been transporting finished cars overland in China since 2003, and now provides transportation services throughout the country to Chinese, European, and Japanese vehicle manufacturers that produce cars domestically. Domestic sales of new cars in China now exceeds thirteen million units, and the resulting demand for inland transportation is expected to increase in tandem with increasing imports and exports. NYK Logistics (China) established its head office in Shanghai in June 2000 – the first comprehensive logistics company wholly owned by a Japanese company. Since then, the company has set up branches in cities along the seacoast as well as the inner regions of China, and intends to further expand its logistics service network. Quelle: eyefortransport |
