Delivery of goods by sea from the port of Los Angeles

In recent years, trade relations between Ukraine and the United States of America have significantly strengthened. Over the past couple of years, there has been a rise in trade cooperation rates of about five to seven percent per year. Ukrainian entrepreneurs export goods of the following groups: raw materials, food (honey, sunflower oil), high-tech products. We are supplied with coal, cars, agricultural machinery. Therefore, the delivery of cargo from the United States to Ukraine today is a relevant and demanded service, which is carried out with high quality by the specialists of the GALS MARKET holding. Below we will look at services such as shipping from the Port of Los Angeles and other major state trading hubs.

Delivery of goods from America

The United States is one of the world’s leading economies with active foreign trade. It is important to mention that the country is the leader among the importing and exporting countries, for example, exports exceed one and a half trillion dollars, and imports of goods – two trillion. Exported goods are aviation and transport equipment, petroleum products, pharmaceuticals, imported – computer hardware, car parts, smartphones and gadgets, broadcast equipment.

It should be mentioned that a developed transport and engineering infrastructure has been developed here. It is the Americans who have the largest number of airports in the world, as well as the longest road network in the world. At the same time, the geography of trade relations is not limited to the continent; American businessmen successfully cooperate with Canada, South Korea, China, Japan, Mexico and Germany. The list of partners also includes Ukrainian counterparties.

Peculiarities of trade between Ukraine and America

In fact, every Ukrainian knows exactly where this country is located and that it is possible to get there in only two ways – by water and by air.

Aviation, despite its widespread use, is still a financially costly method of transfer, in addition, it has size limitations. If the consumer is interested in speed and his luggage does not exceed standard volumes, then air transport is an ideal option.

Sea transportation of goods from the USA is popular today, as it has a number of advantages:

• affordable cost;
• high tonnage;
• relative speed.

There are two types of sending:

• Full Container Load – full loading of the warehouse with goods ordered by one recipient is beneficial in case of full filling (sizes are often standard – 20-40 feet), at the same time, the complete safety of products is guaranteed and their protection from external factors such as rain, salt and sea water;
• Less-than-container Load is an advantageous offer for representatives of small and medium-sized businesses, since the container is filled with products for many customers, while the cost is divided between all consumers, the only caveat is the detailed processing of documentation for each item.

International sea transportation today occupies a leading position, second only in speed. So, transportation can take about forty days, it all depends on the place of loading and unloading.

Specialists of our company can offer delivery from different ports of the state. For example, if you need to transport cargo to Asia, these are the ports: Baltimore, New York, Philadelphia, New Orleans. If we are talking about crossing the Atlantic Ocean – through the ports of Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles, we will talk about the latter in more detail.

Delivery of goods from the Port of Los Angeles

The Port of Los Angeles is the largest seaport in the United States, located in the industrial and economic center of the Western United States. Together with the port of Long Beach, it forms the largest port area in the country, which is also one of the largest in terms of cargo turnover in the world.
