Thailand - Damco, the logistics arm of Danish shipping giant A.P. Moller-Maersk have commenced warehousing, and distribution services at a new import and export logistics hub in Samrong, Bangkok.

The new export freight hub is strategically located on Poochao-saming-prai road between Bangkok city and Bangna and Bangpoo, which are Thailand's major industrial zones.

The hub will connect directly to the main Thai port of Laem Chabang via a daily container barge service, allowing shippers to bypass Lad Kra Bang Terminal's Inland Container Depot in Bangkok.

According to Damco, a global F&B manufacturer benefited with a cost savings of 30% from the leveraging of this new service.

Damco's new facility services range from barging, container freight station to general and free trade zone warehousing, enabling customers to complete every aspect of import or export handling, including customs clearance and other value added services.
