Freight to China by sea and air
China is one of the world’s biggest consumer and industrial markets, with demand for UK food and drink, machinery, luxury goods and specialist components. Qube Cargo ships to Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, Guangzhou and other major Chinese cities by sea and air, using FCL and LCL container services into China’s main ports.
For urgent and high-value cargo, we arrange air freight into Shanghai Pudong and other main hubs. We help you check certification and labelling requirements before shipping, so goods aren’t held at Chinese customs.
