Overland transport links Asia and Europe by rail and road. In terms of time and price, it sits between sea and air freight, so it suits medium quantities of goods that you need sooner than a ship could bring them.
Rail freight
Container trains run between China and Europe on overland routes. Rail freight is usually faster than sea freight and cheaper than air freight. It suits full containers and groupage shipments that you need within a shorter timeframe.
Road freight
The truck is the most flexible part of the journey. It brings the goods from the port, rail terminal or warehouse to the consignee, anywhere in Slovenia and in other European countries.
