TransContainer offers significant savings

The Russian market is of great interest in terms of business development to South Korean companies whose capital investments in the Russian economy are numbered in billions of dollars. However, strengthening cooperation in various spheres of the economy and the implementation of large-scale joint projects, are impossible without stable and affordable transportation.

The delivery of goods from South Korea to the central regions of Russia has traditionally involved the use of sea transport and long distance trucking to consignees in Russia, resulting in significant costs in time and money.

The new TransContainer Asia Pacific system permits containers to be shipped from South Korea’s ports to those in Russia’s Far East and onward by rail to central Russia and Eastern Europe. Delivery time has been reduced by up to 25 days compared to the traditional shipping route, resulting in significant cost savings for cargo owners.
