Shipping cars from Thailand to Bangladesh

DACHSER has recently completed the first batch of a Roll-on/ Roll-off (RoRo) shipment: 40 out of 270 cars were transported by vessel from the manufacturer in Thailand to the dealer in Bangladesh.

The cars “rolled on” with its own wheels to the feeder vessel at Laem Chabang port in Thailand.

The cars “rolled on” with its own wheels to the feeder vessel at Laem Chabang port in Thailand and transited to the mega mother vessel at Singapore car hubs, finally they “rolled off” at the destination port at Chittagong in Bangladesh, after their 19 days journey.

The experience of handling RoRo shipment in the past proofed the capability of the logistics service provider, and it is one of the reasons for the car dealer to choose DACHSER among others in the competitive market.

DACHSER Bangladesh already delivered buses from Jakarta, Indonesia to Dhaka, Bangladesh successfully, using the same method in 2019. Read more.

Roll-on and roll-off

Roll-on/ Roll-off by sea is an efficient mode of transportation in terms of convenience and affordability. The vehicles were driven to the vessel which are specially designed for wheeled automobiles, and were driven off straight away at the destination port.

With the precise planning and careful monitoring from the DACHSER teams at the origin and destination, the vehicles were delivered on time and fulfilled the requirements highlighted by the customer. The entire shipment will be completed in four months’ time.

Update on DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics operations

With this update DACHSER would like to inform about the current DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics operations across the regions APAC, EMEA and Americas. In the attached document (see download below) it is listed whether a country organization of DACHSER is operational or, if only limited or not at all, why this is the case. Since the situation in the countries may change rapidly, the attached document will be updated on a regular basis and published on our website.

We sincerely regret any inconveniences caused to our customers due to the pandemic. At DACHSER, we have contingency measures in place and will offer our customers the best alternative solutions to keep the supply chain running. Anyhow, the situation at ports, airports or customs authorities might cause delays. Furthermore, the capacity situation on the global airfreight market is very tense as there are basically no passenger flights operating at the moment.

At the same time, DACHSER has installed strict hygiene measures (e.g. home office) to ensure a safe working environment and to do our part in stopping the spread of the virus. DACHSER is trying to keep the impact of these measures as low as possible, however, together with the official measures by the governments, the precautions may lead to some delays in the operations.

In case of any questions and/or queries, please feel free to contact your local DACHSER representative.
