Davies Turner launches new LCL
UK-based Davies Turner is expanding its portfolio of ocean freight services between UK and India with the launch of a direct weekly LCL service to Nhava Sheva. The forwarder's previous service to the Indian port ran via transhipment in Jebel Ali. Now, the direct link offers a better transit time of 25 days port to port.
Consolidation of cargo in UK is undertaken at one of Davies Turner’s regional distribution centres at Birmingham, Bristol, Cumbernauld, Dartford, or Manchester, for the weekly ocean freight service that departs from London Gateway port.
In India, the dedicated weekly service to Nhava Sheva also has direct links to the following inland container depots (ICDs) – Ahmedabad, Garhiharsaru, Ludihana and Patparganj (New Delhi). Davis Turner routes its other ocean freight LCL operations via Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Durban and New York. (sh)
