Lynden boosts PR logistics service

Lynden has served customers on the island since 1977 by consolidating freight in the U.S., then shipping, receiving and warehousing goods at its San Juan office.

“Lynden has always offered customers an ocean product, but it’s now a more defined service with a consistent schedule, faster transit times and a competitive price,” explained Juancarlos Cruz, district manager in Puerto Rico.

Two new domestic ocean service center points have been added to Lynden’s existing Nashville consolidation point. Lynden also added a truck route twice a week from Los Angeles to Nashville to catch the twice-weekly sailing to San Juan.

“Most other forwarders offer one only consolidation per week,” Cruz said.

As part of the enhanced ocean service, Lynden’s online shipping and tracking tool, EZ Commerce, was also improved.

Lynden’s facility in Carolina features a 35,000-square-foot warehouse with nine dock doors to receive customers’ freight for warehouse management or 3PL business opportunities. In addition to warehousing, Lynden offers air and ocean services, customs brokerage and delivery throughout the island.
