Every year China exports trillions of US dollars’ worth of products globally – with over $65 billion (USD) heading into the UK. It’s safe to say that China remains the most popular origin for the goods we import. This includes furniture, home furnishings, toys, textiles, electronics and much more.
We completed our first shipment from China in 2007 and established AFS Hong Kong – our dedicated point of contact for all freight flowing out of China into the UK – in 2014.
We’ve since added offices in Ningbo and Qingdao, and built our selected network across every major port in China. These connections and local understanding ensure we can handle any type of shipment.
Why choose AFS Global?
In China, reputation, a commitment to building face to face relationships and mutual trust ensures a faster, trouble-free service. It’s why we visit our partners there regularly and build up goodwill that will help if there are any bumps in the road.
