The first transit train with Kazakh wheat for Vietnam has arrived in China
A train carrying 1,700 tons of Kazakh wheat has reached China’s Lianyungang port, the first of eight shipments bound for Vietnam. Using a “one container – one service” model and a fast-track “green corridor,” the wheat will be shipped to Haiphong efficiently. Kazakhstan plans to export 15,000 tons to Vietnam, amid growing exports to Asia, Africa, and Iran.
A transit container train carrying Kazakh wheat has arrived at the Chinese port of Lianyungang. This is the first of eight grain trains intended for Vietnam, sent by Kazakhstan’s Food Corporation via a multimodal route.
The train is made up of 62 containers with a total weight of 1,7 thousand tons. After transshipment onto sea vessels, the wheat will be delivered to the Vietnamese port of Haiphong.
According to the Food Corporation, citing Chinese media, the logistics base in Lianyungang operates under the principle of “one container – one service,” meaning the grain stays in the same container without being reloaded from the point of origin to the final destination. Thanks to this system, the transition from rail to the seaport took only one hour. The Kazakh wheat was also delivered through a “green corridor” with accelerated processing of all procedures.
The Food Corporation specified that the first batch of grain was formed at grain-receiving enterprises in the Akmola region. In total, about 15,000 tons of Kazakh food-grade wheat are planned for export to Vietnam.
Since the beginning of the year, the Food Corporation has shipped 196,000 tons of grain for export. The largest batches were sent to importers in North Africa, Southeast Asia and Iran.
