Schenker has Problems in China

It has been widely reported that the Chinese Ministry of Communications issued a statement saying that Schenker was under investigation for operating with falsified documents, and that Schenker was to cease all ocean freight business in China.

In a statement to eyefortransport this morning, DB and Schenker confirmed that Schenker AG is a registered NVOCC in China under a confirmed listing, and is shown at the official website accordingly.

In the past, further branches have been registered under Schenker China Ltd. Unfortunately a discrepancy occurred during the registration, and the company is in contact with the relevant authorities to investigate and clarify the matter.

In the meantime, Schenker is assuring customers that it is business as usual, and all shipments will be handled in properly, promptly, and in a compliant manner.
