Transportation Solutions
Bofeng Logistics offers multiple transportation solutions from Sanming to Hong Kong:

After LCL consolidation and customs clearance at the transfer warehouse, they are connected via cross-border vehicles through the port to Hong Kong and delivered to designated locations. Total door-to-door transit time is approximately 4-7 days.
Direct Sea Freight: Goods are shipped directly from the nearest ports in Sanming (Fuzhou Port/Xiamen Port) to Hong Kong Port via sea. After arrival at the port, they are picked up and delivered to designated locations.
