FORT SMITH, Ark., Nov. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- ABF® has expanded its portfolio of global solutions to include Ocean LTL: a single-contact, expedited less-than-container-load/less-than-truckload (LCL/LTL) supply chain solution for customers who import from manufacturing centers in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
"By combining ABF's innovative Dual-System® Network with top-tier NVOCC shipping, ABF is able to provide reliable global shipping solutions that offer importers unparalleled control and visibility," said Roy Slagle, ABF senior vice president of sales and marketing, referring to ABF's status as a non vessel operating common carrier (NVOCC). "Our new Ocean LTL service is a great compliment to our already successful FCL (full-container-load) business, which has been around since 2006."
A service offered through ABF Global Supply Chain Services division, Ocean LTL features guaranteed weekly departures on a fixed day and schedule, which enables ABF to expedite shipments up to 40% faster than traditional LCL sources. Long-term planning is enhanced by advanced scheduling for consolidation and departures. In transit, virtual warehousing and dynamic rerouting enable on-the-water inventory allocation and order fulfillment directly from the container to the end-user or multiple delivery locations. ......................
