Chief Executive Officer of Da Chan Bay Terminal One, Mr. Andrew Milliken said: ¡°The best transportation method for connecting Shenzhen Port and the high-economic-growth west areas of Pearl River Delta is barge transport, which is both swift and cost saving. In the last few years, the barge transportation network of west PRD had grown into the current mature scale driven by market demand and it is still growing each year. Da Chan Bay Terminal One answered the call of the market and joined the South China Common Feeder Alliance (SCCFA) in March 2008. Different barge services were open then for easy access to west side of PRD, such as Foshan, Shunde, Zhongshan and Zhuhai. We are delighted to see more clients are ready to leverage the strategic location of Da Chan Bay Terminal One to serve the South China market.¡±
With the professional infrastructure design and state-of-the-art equipment, Da Chan Bay Terminal One is well-positioned to deliver customer-focused services and allow carriers to capture future growth in South China.
