TNT and Con-way Freight have teamed up to provide a new day-definite service offering for European shippers sending cargo to the United States.
The new service will utilize TNT’s European road network and international cargo services and Con-way’s delivery network in the U.S. to provide an expedited door to door freight service. The service will allow shippers to ship from Europe to any city in within the United States.
“This strategic alliance with TNT further expands Con-way Freight’s capabilities to serve the international needs of our customers, a key differentiator in today’s global economy,” said John G. Labrie, president, Con-way Freight. “We’re both playing to our strengths, with shippers realizing significant benefit from a highly reliable, cost-effective service that can reduce overall logistics costs, shorten supply cycles and accelerate product to market. We’re excited to be launching this solution with one of the world’s most respected and successful global express service providers.”
This is Con-way’s latest foray into the international marketplace. Previously, Con-way teamed up with APL Logistics to launch a guaranteed LCL ocean service called OceanGuaranteed®.
