Dachser Mexico has announced a new less-than-container load service between the port of Altamira, Mexico and the port of Santos, Brazil. This new weekly ocean transport solution offers customers more access to the Americas region and LATAM specifically.

“Especially during these uncertain times, our customers want predictability and peace of mind, which is exactly why our LCL services are a vital transport option,” said Edgardo Hamon, Managing Director ASL Mexico at DACHSER. “Dachser’s expanded LCL services portfolio, including this new route between Altamira and Santos, provides our customers with predictable ocean transport options, which allows them to plan with certainty and operate with efficiency.”

With its focus to manage smaller cargo shipments, Dachser Mexico’s LCL service provides customers with a guaranteed departure / arrival time schedule with the cargo typically arriving at the destination port in 22 days.

This new Dachser Altamira – Santos LCL service route features the following:

• Reliable weekly service schedule.
• Consistent staff explicitly assigned to this service route.
• Flexible processes to provide customer’s tailor-made solutions, as needed.
• Full portfolio of value-added service solutions including complimenting the ocean portion with ground transportation, customs house service and warehousing.
• Altamira is considered the industrial port center of the Mexican region, handling all the containerized cargo coming and going from the area with a location that is near the metropolitan city of Tampico. In Brazil, the port of Santos is the largest container port in Latin America. 

“By demonstrating Dachser Mexico’s continued commitment to this vital trade partnership, we have shown that we are a solid partner for Latin American businesses – enabling them to reach farther and fully optimize their market potential,” said Hamon.
