Gebrüder Weiss gets on the road from China to Georgia

[ March 2, 2026   //   Chris Lewis ]

Gebrüder Weiss has launched a weekly trucking service between China and Georgia. Goods are picked up nationwide across China and consolidated at several Gebrüder Weiss locations – from Shanghai in the east to Urumqi in the west. The shipments are then transported by truck to Khorgos on the Chinese-Kazakh border. From there, the route continues through Kazakhstan, across the Caspian Sea (via ferry), and through Azerbaijan to the Georgian capital. At the company’s logistics terminal in Tbilisi shipments are distributed throughout Georgia and onward to neighbouring Armenia and Azerbaijan, including customs clearance.

Transit time from Khorgos to Tbilisi is 22 to 25 days.

The service aimed at  companies in the South Caucasus that import products including electronics, consumer goods, and spare parts for machinery and vehicles.

The forwarder says the road service offers shorter transit times than sea, greater flexibility than rail, and significantly lower costs than air freight and is specifically tailored to smaller shipment volumes.
