Business Background
The client is a Xuzhou-based crane manufacturer with products exported worldwide. This shipment involves exporting a batch of machinery equipment to Port Klang, Malaysia, for local engineering projects.
The client contacted our company online. After consultation with our advisor, the requirements were clarified: brand-new cranes with complete documentation, requiring formal customs declaration and export tax rebate processing. The export port selected was Shanghai (suitable for oversized cargo), with Port Klang as the destination port. Our company was responsible for the full logistics chain from the Xuzhou factory to Port Klang, ensuring safe and compliant delivery of the goods.
Business Process
The machinery weighed approximately 32 tons with a volume of 14 cubic meters. Based on the cargo specifications, our company arranged international break-bulk sea freight services. We provided comprehensive logistics support including loading/unloading, crane operations, vessel chartering and booking, customs declaration and inspection, insurance, inland trucking, and door-to-door delivery to ensure safe arrival at the destination.
