Stop Paying for Domestic Shipping: How Our 9-City China Network Cuts Your Logistics Costs

One of the hidden costs in international shipping is the "First Mile"—getting your goods from the factory to the freight forwarder's warehouse.

If your factory is in Yiwu (Zhejiang) but your forwarder only has a warehouse in Shenzhen (Guangdong), you are wasting money. You have to pay for 1,200km of domestic trucking, and you lose 2-3 days in transit before your goods even see a ship.

At Forest Leopard, we operate differently. We don't just have a desk; we have physical warehouses in every major manufacturing hub in China, plus strategic hubs in the USA and Europe.

Here is how our infrastructure (from Shenzhen to Brooklyn) builds a faster, cheaper supply chain for you.

1. The "East China" Advantage (Yiwu, Ningbo, Shanghai, Hangzhou)

If you are sourcing General Merchandise, Textiles, or Heavy Industry products, your factories are likely in the Yangtze River Delta. Why drag those goods all the way to the south?

We have established dedicated warehouses right where your suppliers are:

• Yiwu Warehouse (JD Asia No.1 Park): Located in the heart of the world's small commodity capital. Perfect for consolidating samples from the International Trade City.
• Ningbo & Shanghai Warehouses: Strategic for heavy cargo. Ningbo-Zhoushan Port is the world’s busiest port by tonnage. Our local warehouses (Fenghua & Songjiang) allow for immediate loading onto vessels, bypassing the congestion of other ports.
• Hangzhou Warehouse: Ideal for e-commerce sellers sourcing from Alibaba's backyard.

Benefit: You get local rates. Your supplier delivers to our local warehouse in <24 hours, often for free.

2. The "South China" Electronic Hub (Shenzhen & Xiamen)

For Electronics, Batteries, and High-Tech products, the Pearl River Delta is king.

• Shenzhen HQ & Fuyong/Bantian Warehouses: Our headquarters in Bao'an District (near the airport) puts us minutes away from key logistics arteries. We handle sensitive battery cargo and complex sorting here.
• Xiamen Warehouse: Serving the Fujian region (shoes, apparel, and stone products).

3. Overseas Warehouses: Your US & Europe Footprint

We don't stop when the ship leaves China. Unlike many agents who hand off your cargo to a random 3rd party, Forest Leopard maintains control on the destination side.

The US West Coast Hub: Azusa, CA

• Address: 1344 West Foothill Blvd, Azusa, CA 91702.
• Function: Located near the Port of Los Angeles/Long Beach. This is our De-consolidation Center. We strip containers here and inject goods directly into the UPS/FedEx network for fast delivery to the Western US.

The US East Coast Hub: Brooklyn, NY

• Address: 180 N 8th St, Brooklyn, NY 11211.
• Function: Serving the heavily populated East Coast. By shipping directly to New York, we save you the cross-country trucking fees that usually apply when shipping from California to New York.

The European Hub: Belgium

• Address: Waversesteenweg 139, Hoeilaart, Belgium.
• Function: Our gateway to the EU. From Belgium, we can distribute to Germany, France, and the Netherlands duty-paid.

Case Study: The "Multi-City" Saver

The Scenario: A client sourcing Toys from Yiwu and Headphones from Shenzhen.

• Old Way: Truck toys from Yiwu to Shenzhen ($300 cost + 3 days delay). Consolidate in Shenzhen. Ship out.
• The Forest Leopard Way:

1. Toys go to our Yiwu Consolidation Center.

2. Headphones go to our Shenzhen Fuyong Warehouse.

3. We ship them out separately from the nearest ports (Ningbo Port & Yantian Port), OR we consolidate intelligently based on the vessel schedule.

The Result: The client saved $300 and cut 3 days off the lead time.

Conclusion: Use Our Map to Grow Your Business

Don't settle for a forwarder with one address. Leverage the Forest Leopard Network. Whether it's Linyi in the North or Brooklyn in the West, we are where your business needs us to be.
