In the import and export services of mechanical and electrical equipment and bulk raw materials provided to customers, SUMEC International Technology Co., Ltd. will also formulate appropriate logistics plans according to the specific circumstances of the project and use the China-Europe Railway Express service. So what are the specific aspects of the China-Europe Railway Express service? Let's take a look together.

First of all, the China-Europe Railway Express can transport products in a very diverse and flexible form. Since there are many personalized aspects of the products that customers need to transport and their specific transportation needs, how to meet them to the greatest extent is a great test for logistics service providers. In this regard, the China-Europe Railway Express continues to innovate. In addition to ensuring traditional full-train transportation, it can also provide LCL (Less than Container Load) transportation services. This is very friendly to many small and medium-sized enterprises. We all know that many large enterprises have the need and ability to bear the cost of full-train transportation due to their large shipment volume, but for many enterprises that are not so large, some small orders also have transportation needs. The LCL logistics service of the China-Europe Railway Express enables small batches of goods from small and medium-sized enterprises to be transported conveniently through the China-Europe Railway Express. In addition, special trains are also a major feature, which are customized trains operated for some special needs of customers. For example, in recent years, cross-border e-commerce has developed vigorously, and the demand for transportation services has also surged. In response to this demand, the China-Europe Railway Express has opened a cross-border e-commerce B2B special train, providing efficient logistics solutions for e-commerce enterprises. It can be said that the rapid development of cross-border e-commerce also has the contribution of the China-Europe Railway Express.

In terms of services, the China-Europe Railway Express is also continuously improving to create a one-stop comprehensive service platform. Combining digital means, the China-Europe Railway Express has also opened its own portal website. By onlineizing various services, customers do not need to run back and forth offline, and can complete various operations such as demand submission, contract signing, and customs declaration and inspection only through this official platform. In addition, the China-Europe Railway Express has its own customer service center to serve the needs of global customers, providing intermodal transport document processing, cargo tracking, customs brokerage, comprehensive logistics, full-process insurance and other services. It is these intimate services that allow customers to enjoy convenient and efficient logistics services, and also make it easier for enterprises to go abroad and expand their markets.

Let's take a specific look at a case of the China-Europe Railway Express logistics service. In the past, a large Chinese electronic equipment manufacturing enterprise mainly relied on sea transport to export products to Europe. Although the transportation cost was relatively low, the transportation time was long, and it often took 35-45 days for the goods from production to the European market. With the increasingly fierce market competition and the acceleration of product update speed, the too long transportation time has increased the risk of inventory backlog and the low efficiency of capital turnover. Later, the company chose the China-Europe Railway Express to transport some products. The transportation time of the goods was shortened to 15-20 days through the China-Europe Railway Express, which greatly improved the capital turnover rate. In addition, the stability of transportation by the China-Europe Railway Express enables enterprises to arrange production and sales plans more accurately and reduce inventory costs. At the same time, due to the shortening of transportation time, products can be put into the market faster, and enterprises have seized more market opportunities, with significantly increased sales.
