China-Vietnam Railway Freight Service Helps Furniture Factory Reduce Costs and Improve Efficiency --- A Logistics Case Study of a Furniture Manufacturer Background A furniture manufacturer located in Zhejiang Province, mainly producing high-end furniture products, exports its products to Europe and America. With the extension and adjustment of the company's supply chain, it faced challenges such as a surge in work-in-process inventory and rapidly rising transportation costs. Simultaneously, traditional logistics methods suffered from issues like unstable delivery times and high costs, which severely impacted the company's operational efficiency and market competitiveness. Logistics Solution In response to the actual situation of this furniture manufacturer, we designed a door-to-door integrated logistics solution of "Rail Freight + Short-haul Trucking" for the China-Vietnam Railway Freight Service Project. The specific process is as follows: 1.Loading Stage: Containers are loaded at the railway yard closest to the factory, ensuring the goods are loaded onto the train safely and quickly while minimizing short-haul trucking costs. 2.Railway Freight Transport: Goods depart from the railway yard, undergo transshipment at the border port, and arrive in Vietnam. Containers are fully trackable throughout the journey. The total station-to-station railway transport takes 6-7 days. 3. Unloading and Short-haul: Upon arrival at the Vietnamese station, we contact the customer and arrange short-haul trucking according to the customer's requested delivery date to the factory, delivering the goods directly to the customer's designated warehouse, achieving door-to-door service. The multimodal door-to-door logistics solution we provided to the customer resulted in a 40% reduction in logistics costs, a 40% improvement in transport efficiency, and an on-time delivery rate of over 98%.
