Korea is a country in East Asia that should not be underestimated economically under any circumstances. Both South Korea and North Korea have clearly shown in recent years that their economies have been making great leaps since 1980 and are therefore of interest to many companies as partners. If the pace of growth continues at this rate, cooperation with Korean companies will naturally continue to become increasingly interesting for German companies. If you are looking for a professional partner for Korea export or Korea import, you have come to the right place with Dörrenhaus. As a full-service agency, we offer you many advantages, flawless security and a great deal of convenience.
Various transport options between Germany and Korea
There are various options for carrying out projects with companies from Korea and exporting or importing to Germany. Most of our customers rely primarily on sea freight for their Korean projects, as this primarily involves the container port of Busan, which is the largest container port in the world. A particularly large proportion of South Korea's foreign trade is handled from here and we also work with various partners.
Transport by ocean freight is not only very economical, but also cost-effective. It is suitable for all shipments of non-perishable goods and not only offers customers a particularly high level of security, but is also cost-saving. However, if you need to move quickly, we also recommend air freight transport to Korea. This freight option is generally recommended for sensitive and urgent goods. So whenever time is of the essence, transport by plane is the best option, and here too we have been relying on our partners at the country's most important airports for many years.
