In the case of Matson Express、 it is a ship transporting international goods、 and its timeliness is relatively fast.
1、 Advantages of Meisen Express
1. Advantages
Matson Express fast shipping integrates the whole transportation process、 picking up process and its own advantages. Its most significant feature is fast picking up and delivery.
Time efficiency advantage: It only takes about 11 working days for container loading from Shanghai Port to Los Angeles、 the fastest shipping route at present.
Own terminals: In addition to fast speed、 Meisen Express has its own dedicated terminal in Los Angeles、 and other shipping companies use public terminals、 so Meisen Express has higher efficiency in container handling、 the most significant advantage in the peak shipping season、 is not easy to arrange warehouses、 and has good stability.
2. Disadvantages
High price: because Meisen Express is the fastest channel、 the price of Meisen Express is also the highest.
The ship can only be shipped in Shanghai: after receiving the goods in other domestic cities、 they also need to be sent to Shanghai for shipment. They are not friendly to other regions outside Shanghai、 which will increase domestic transportation costs.
3. Suitable for Matson Express fast shipping
On the whole、 Meisen Express is still a good shipping channel in the United States、 but it can only ship at Shanghai ports. Such shipping channels are only suitable for export enterprises in Shanghai and its surrounding cities. How to be an export enterprise in Shenzhen? It may be more cost-effective to spend time and money to ship goods to Shanghai、 increase the time and cost of transportation、 and choose other sea transportation.
4. Safe and efficient
Matson Express fast shipping has its own dock in the United States、 which will give priority to its own business needs and will not be affected by unexpected events.
5. Convenient and fast
Matson Express fast shipping ship is fully loaded in most cases、 so there is no need to participate in shared cabins、 and the benefits of not participating in shared cabins are obvious. Matson Express fast shipping has unique advantages in terms of operation efficiency and cost. Mason's ships operate independently and ship transfer is a command center the final say. The docks in the United States are easy to contact with ships. Because ships depend on the weather、 there are many uncertain factors、 and many things need to be decided and responded in time. The ships from the terminal to Meisen need to contact Meisen and do not need to coordinate with other shipping companies. Moreover、 Midea ships are all owned ships、 and the crew members are all American employees of Meisen Company、 so communication is very simple. Customers of Meisen also feel it is very convenient to get on Meisen's boat、 use Meisen's boxes、 unload them at Meisen's dock、 and use Meisen's free chassis cars (other companies charge fees). It is very convenient.
6. Unique
As far as the specific route is concerned、 the possibility of duplication of Matson Express fast shipping route is very low. Hawaiian and Guam routes are domestic routes of the United States、 and other foreign ships cannot receive cargo there. But what can be copied is regression value. This is something everyone can do and the shipping company must do. Customers vary widely. Sometimes customers don't know what they need. Before you present a specific product to him、 he is not very clear. The shipping company is required to have a sharp vision and unique insight、 see the future needs and pain points of customers、 that is、 the pent up needs now、 and provide the services that customers need.
7. Excellent financial position
In fact、 when they came to China from the United States and Spain、 they were already profitable. Then return to the United States from China、 although as a return cargo、 the freight rate of Matson Express fast shipping is higher than that of other shipping companies' main eastbound routes.

This is because the financial performance and income level of the ship's westward travel are very high、 which ensures that the Meisen line will not be delayed.
First of all、 we need to know two concepts: billing weight unit、 first weight and additional weight
Billing weight unit: The international express industry generally takes 0.5KG (0.5kg) as a billing weight unit.
First weight and additional weight: the first 0.5KG is the first weight for international express delivery、 and every additional 0.5KG is an additional weight. Generally、 the cost of hoisting is higher than that of continuous hoisting.
There is one price between 0.5KG and 0.5KG、 which is the first weight price. The part exceeding 0.5KG will be charged according to the additional weight price
Therefore、 the actual freight is equal to the first weight price+additional weight price
When the actual weight of the goods to be delivered is greater than the volume weight、 the freight=first weight freight+(actual weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight
When the actual weight of the delivered goods is small but the volume is large、 the freight=the first freight+(volume weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight
Note that the freight here is only the basic freight、 not the final total cost、 and there may be other additional costs.
Packaging fee: Generally、 international express companies provide free packaging、 cartons、 bubbles and other packaging materials、 but many items、 such as clothing、 can be packaged without extra fine packaging、 but some express companies will charge a certain packaging fee for valuable and fragile items. Packaging costs are generally not included in the discount calculation.
Fuel surcharge: all major international express will be updated in real time according to market conditions. Please consult customer service for specific fees.
Other uncertain expenses: such as service fees in remote areas、 sensitive freight charges for sending batteries、 powders、 liquids、 food、 brands、 etc.、 which are mainly related to the items and regions you send.
Basically、 total cost=(freight+fuel surcharge) × Discount+packaging cost+other uncertain costs
In addition、 different countries and different logistics channels have different basic charging standards、 and the cost may also be affected by many factors such as flight outage. The specific charging standards can also be subject to the real-time quotation of the express company.
Compared with international express delivery and air transportation、 ocean transportation has more and more complicated processes. Because of the large volume of goods and many categories、 there are mainly the following processes: booking space、 loading containers、 customs declaration、 customs clearance、 and picking up goods.
Booking space: Before shipping、 first confirm with the cooperative logistics supplier that your goods can be transported、 such as flammable and explosive goods、 military goods、 medical equipment、 counterfeit brands、 adult supplies and batteries over 100 watts can not be transported、 the shipping company can transport your goods、 and you also need to confirm what certification your goods need in the exporting country to avoid being seized by the customs. When you are ready for this、 you can book space with the shipping agent from the shipping company、 and then issue the SO form. Generally、 you can make an advance forecast two to three days before loading. At this time、 you can prepare the customs declaration materials.
Container loading: Choose a freight forwarding company that can pick up goods free of charge in this city、 and you can save a delivery fee. Before packing、 the number of pieces、 weight、 squares and plates shall be confirmed before packing、 so as to avoid the discrepancy between the freight forwarder's measurement and its own、 and the packing list shall be prepared. Then make an appointment with the freight forwarder to pick up the goods.
Customs declaration: customs declaration can be divided into tax refund customs declaration and bill declaration. Only companies with import and export business rights and companies that have signed paperless customs declaration at electronic ports can apply for tax refund customs declaration. Generally、 materials that need to be prepared are: foreign trade contracts、 invoices、 packing lists、 customs declaration letters of attorney (not used in Ningbo Shanghai Guangzhou)、 draft customs declaration forms (including declaration elements)、 special documents (customs clearance forms for outbound goods、 export licenses、 etc.). If the materials are not fully prepared or need to be replenished、 the freight forwarding company will notify you to replenish the materials in time to ensure the normal delivery of the goods.
Customs clearance: mainly including declaration、 tax payment、 inspection and release. The shipping order and declaration form shall be prepared and submitted to the customs at the destination、 and then the customs shall pay taxes according to the declared value of goods. The customs will inspect and review the goods according to the inspection process of relevant goods. This may delay some time、 depending on the nature and category of the goods. As long as there is no problem in the inspection、 the customs will release and then the consignee can pick up the goods.
