The AP Moller Maersk Group's logistics arm, Damco, has introduced a new cross border trucking service that links Thailand and Vietnam to Cambodia.
"Compared with seafreight, the cross border trucking service can reduce the lead time from Thailand to Cambodia by at least three days," said Narin Phol, Damco manager for Cambodia and Vietnam.
The service was designed to assist the growing trade between the three nations and Mr Phol expects to see a growing volume of cargo on these corridors, particularly between Vietnam and Cambodia.
Vietnam is Cambodia's second largest trading partner and fast becoming a hub connecting Cambodia to international markets via the Cai Mep terminals.
"Transportation and customs clearance are handled by Damco staff at both origin and destination to ensure smooth operations from end to end," Mr Phol said.
