Trading with China is one of the most popular business directions among Ukrainian entrepreneurs. Long-distance logistics require a special approach — it is important not only to deliver goods, but to do so quickly, reliably, and cost-effectively. DiFFreight offers an efficient transportation scheme from China, providing optimal solutions for business.
China’s well-developed infrastructure allows for various logistics options. Typically, suppliers deliver goods only within the country, handing them over to a freight forwarder’s warehouse. We provide warehouse services in China, ensuring proper preparation for shipment, which includes the following stages:
Shipping goods from China to Ukraine is carried out using a multimodal logistics scheme. The first part of the route involves sea or air transportation.
Most goods are shipped in containers. For small and medium-sized businesses, consolidated cargo delivery from China to Kyiv (LCL) is the optimal solution. Shipments from multiple senders are combined in one container, which is cost-effective and time-efficient. Sea freight is the most budget-friendly option but has the longest transit time.
Air freight is an express method suitable for certain types of goods: fragile, high-value, or urgent shipments. Airplanes are significantly faster than container vessels but much more expensive. High air freight rates must be economically justified by the nature of the cargo.
The second stage of the multimodal route is road transportation. We deliver cargo in transit through Europe, most often from Poland or Germany. Consolidation is also available for road transport if the shipment does not fill the entire truck. At the final stage, we deliver your cargo to Kyiv — to a warehouse, office, or any specified address.
Freight rates are dynamic and depend on various factors. For sea transport, pricing is influenced by demand, container availability, and even fuel costs. We fix the rate in the contract, ensuring no hidden fees.
