The new route of "Lanshan Mtwara" has set sail

Recently, the "Phoenix Pine" ship loaded with 19 domestically produced heavy engineering trucks set sail from the Lanshan Port Area of Rizhao Port in Shandong Province, sounding its horn, and traveled along the newly opened "Lanshan Mtwara" route to Tanzania in Africa. These engineering trucks will be invested in local infrastructure projects such as highways and ports, injecting new momentum into China Africa economic and trade cooperation.

Before the truck arrives at the port, we coordinate the arrival information of the agent in advance, coordinate and arrange human resources, guide enterprises to apply the 'direct loading upon arrival' supervision mode, minimize the time of goods in the port yard, and improve customs clearance efficiency, "said Li Lei, head of the Port Supervision Department of the Rizhao Customs Office in Lanshan Port.

Liu Xiaojun, the business manager of Shandong Baiqiang International Logistics Co., Ltd., which provides proxy customs clearance for goods, said that this batch of trucks only took 24 hours from declaration to loading, and the customs' "direct loading upon arrival" mode saved the waiting time for goods storage and significantly reduced logistics costs.

The opening of the new route "Lanshan Mtwara" not only broadens the logistics channel for "Made in China" to go global, but also builds a new bridge for China Africa production capacity cooperation. Chen Shigong, Deputy Director of Rizhao Customs, said that he would actively support the expansion of new routes, guide enterprises to make good use of the berth resources in Lanshan Port, and continue to help the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road" initiative go deeper and more practical.
