APL enhances new express service with same-day availability at L.A.

Container line APL Ltd. said today it will enhance its "Eagle Express X" (EXX) China-to-U.S. expedited delivery service when it launches in August by offering same-day availability of cargo at the Port of Los Angeles' Global Gateway South (GGS) terminal.

Singapore-based APL said EXX shipments will be discharged to a dedicated fleet of trucks operating at separate in-gate lanes reserved for the service. This will allow for faster cargo collections and deliveries to the local California market, the company said.

Announced in late February, EXX is a weekly service linking the Chinese ports of Shanghai and Ningbo with Los Angeles with 11- and 12-day transit times respectively, and fast discharges. The service's first sailing is scheduled to depart Ningbo Aug. 2 and Shanghai Aug. 3. The vessel will arrive in Los Angeles Aug. 14.

APL is a unit of French container line CMA CGM, which acquired then-APL parent Neptune Orient Lines in December 2015 for US$2.4 billion.

The EXX service is another step by container lines to develop premium delivery services to better compete with other transport modes.

Lessons from CSCMP’s Annual Report Card for Shippers and Carriers

DCV-TV 4: Viewer Contributed
Recently, the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) released their 33rd Annual State of Logistics Report which is created by AT Kearny. I've viewed this as basically a "Report Card" for shippers and carriers since it offers a comprehensive view of what they both have dealt with in the past year,...
