On September 24th, 2022, the first LCL shipments arrived at DB Schenker’s Land Hub in North Vietnam and were delivered to the South Land Hub, close to Ho Chi Minh City. This first shipment marks the official launch of the new LTL Line Haul solution in Vietnam. Both Land Hubs are now fully operational.
With the new Line Haul solution, DB Schenker is the first logistics provider to offer businesses on-time, and secure LTL Line Haul transportation through its two land hubs in the North and the South. DB Schenker’s Land Hubs in Vietnam are TAPA FSR-certified. The freight containers are equipped with IOT tracking sensors to systematically record all data points of a logistics shipment such as position, temperature, humidity, and incidence of light or vibration.
This is not a land-only solution. Thanks to DB Schenker’s advanced, transportation management system (TMS), the cargo can be shipped with any type of transportation – land, rail, sea, or air. With this range of transport options, the Line Haul solution in Vietnam offers businesses multiple opportunities to save costs and time regardless of the size of the cargo. LTL is especially interesting for smaller businesses because they can make smaller shipments more frequently and do not have to wait until they have enough orders to fill up an entire container.
“We have already seen high demand for the new Line Haul solution from local businesses. We are proud to be able to offer such a service. We have the expertise to manage both LTL and FTL loads. The secure handling of cargo using IOT tracking devices is a tremendous draw for many businesses. This is particularly important for high-value and time-sensitive goods”, said Sin Roy, Head of Land for Vietnam, Cambodia, and DB Schenker’s Southeast Asia Cluster.
The launch of the Line Haul solution is an important step in DB Schenker's strategy to increase its distribution network in Vietnam.
