China to Armenia
Reefer Container Shipping
Temperature-controlled ocean freight · Full cold chain integrity · From major Chinese ports to all of Armenia
📋 Service Overview
Armenia is a landlocked country in the South Caucasus, with no direct seaport. Its import and export trade heavily depends on transit via neighboring ports. We offer professional reefer container shipping from China to Armenia, specializing in cold chain cargo.
Cargo is loaded from major Chinese ports (Shanghai, Ningbo, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Qingdao, Tianjin, etc.) and shipped by sea to Poti or Batumi in Georgia, then transshipped by road or rail to the Armenian capital Yerevan and throughout the country. We use 40ft/20ft refrigerated containers equipped with intelligent temperature control and GPS tracking to ensure consistent quality for frozen goods, fresh produce, pharmaceuticals and other temperature-sensitive items.
As a pioneer in Armenia cold chain logistics, we partner with world-renowned carriers such as MSC, COSCO, ONE, CMA CGM, MAERSK to provide stable, efficient and traceable door-to-door reefer services.
