Choosing the Right Route

Factors to consider when choosing the best route include:

· Urgency: Air freight for urgent shipments, sea freight for non-urgent large volumes.

· Cost: Sea freight is generally the cheapest, followed by rail and then air freight.

· Type of Goods: Perishable and high-value items may be better suited to air freight.

· Volume and Weight: Larger shipments are more cost-effective by sea or rail.

· Destination: Proximity to major ports or airports in Denmark can influence the choice.

By selecting the appropriate route based on these factors, businesses can ensure efficient and cost-effective shipping from China to Denmark.
