DHL has launched a new direct LCL weekly service from Hong Kong to the port of Paranagua in Brazil, enhancing connectivity and trade between the Greater China region and key cities in Brazil.
Operated through DHL Global Forwarding’s in-house carrier, Danmar Lines, the new service supplements DHL’s existing direct LCL services from Hong Kong to Santos and Manaus in Brazil.
DHL is the first major logistics company to offer direct services to Paranagua, Brazil’s largest port for shipment of grains and its second biggest maritime terminal.
Paranagua is also a key destination as it offers easy access to inland cities through established road and rail networks.
Brazil’s Central Bank expects the country’s GDP to increase by 0.1% this year, and businesses are continuously investing in these markets. According to the Hong Kong Trade Development Council, Brazil is already Hong Kong’s second largest export market in Latin America, with total exports up 24% in 2008 to US$1.64 billion.
