Boston, MA – Shipco Transport, one of the leading neutral NVOCC’s in the United States, will introduce the first neutral direct intact consolidation services from Shanghai and Ningbo, China to Boston.
Shipco, being less than one year old in the Boston market, plans to further develop its presence in the region by adding more direct service solutions both for import and export. “The new services are the first neutral service solution from the two origins for New England importers.
