Ocean freight is the most economical way to ship large volumes. We offer both FCL and LCL services, with regular sailings from Shanghai, Ningbo, and Shenzhen to Honolulu. Our team manages ISF and AMS filings, customs paperwork, and container handling to ensure compliance with U.S. import regulations.
Air freight is the fastest option, with daily flights from major Chinese airports to Honolulu. We handle space booking with leading carriers, export documentation, and customs clearance in the U.S. This service is ideal for time-sensitive shipments such as electronics, garments, or perishable goods.
We simplify logistics by managing the entire journey — from supplier pickup in China to final delivery in Honolulu, Maui, Kauai, or the Big Island. This eliminates the need for multiple service providers and ensures seamless cargo flow.
