Can Fangchenggang's sea-rail intermodal transport really save 23% in costs?

When Mr. Zhang first heard about "sea-rail intermodal transport", he was worried about the transportation of a batch of mechanical equipment for export to Southeast Asia. The traditional maritime transportation has a long cycle and the land transportation cost is high. However, the unique location advantages of Fangchenggang and the professional services of Zhongshitong finally enabled this batch of goods to arrive at the destination 5 days ahead of schedule and the cost was reduced by 23%. Behind this is the commercial miracle created by the Fangchenggang sea-rail intermodal transport export agency.

As a key node of the Western Land-Sea New Corridor, Fangchenggang has three core advantages:

• Seamless transportation network: The railway directly reaches the port yard, and containers can "get off the train and board the ship"
• The highest density of Southeast Asian routes: More than 40 trips per week cover major RCEP countries such as Vietnam and Thailand
• Leading customs clearance efficiency: The intelligent port system realizes "one declaration and whole-process handling"

The export case of Ms. Li's agricultural products is quite representative: Through the full-process agency of Zhongshitong, her dried mangoes were sent to Malaysia for the first time via sea-rail intermodal transport, experiencing differentiated services different from the traditional mode:

• Customized transportation plan: Match the best shipping schedule and railway train according to the characteristics of the goods
• Full-process visual tracking: GPS + blockchain technology to realize real-time updates of the goods status
• Customs and affairs integration: Professional team to handle complex documents such as commodity inspection and origin certificates
• Cost optimization system: Automatically calculate the optimal route and tariff planning scheme
• Emergency response mechanism: Special alternative routes in the typhoon season to ensure timeliness

Want to replicate the success experiences of Mr. Zhang and Ms. Li? Just follow the following steps:

1. Demand diagnosis: Provide basic information such as the type of goods and the target market
2. Plan comparison: Obtain more than 3 sets of transportation cost and time comparison plans
3. Full-process trusteeship: After signing the agreement, the professional team will perform the full-process operation

As the dividends of the RCEP continue to be released, sea-rail intermodal transport has changed from an "optional option" to a "mandatory option". The latest data from Zhongshitong shows that in 2023, the enterprises that adopted this mode have on average shortened the transportation time by 18% and reduced the logistics cost by 15%.
