Shanghai – China’s Gateway to the Global Economy

Few cities embody economic dynamism and international connectivity as strongly as Shanghai. As a global financial and logistics hub, the metropolis offers ideal conditions for secure value transport and international freight solutions.

With direct access to major seaports and Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG), the city ranks among the most powerful logistics centers in the world. Shanghai forms the heart of the Yangtze River Delta — a region where innovation, industry, and trade converge in a uniquely synergistic way.

Our branch in Pudong is strategically positioned to efficiently coordinate both export and import flows within China and to key financial centers around the world.

Shanghai Gold Exchange – The Center of China’s Precious Metals Trade

A key factor in our location choice is the Shanghai Gold Exchange (SGE) — China’s largest precious metals exchange and one of the most influential trading platforms worldwide. Founded in 2002 by the People’s Bank of China, it enables the trading of physical gold, silver, and platinum.

The SGE is considered a central institution for price formation and physical delivery of precious metals in China. Every day, large volumes of gold bars are traded and delivered here, making Shanghai a globally significant center for the physical precious metals trade.

Helveticor Shanghai supports this trading flow through secure transport and logistics solutions — from international precious metal deliveries to coordinated handling between mines, refineries, financial institutions, and trading partners.

Our presence in Shanghai allows us to provide clients from Europe, Asia, and beyond with direct access to one of the world’s most active precious metals markets — safely, efficiently, and with Swiss precision.

International Logistics with Swiss Precision

Our expertise lies in the secure and efficient handling of international value transports — whether by air, sea, or multimodal logistics. Shanghai serves as a key hub connecting Europe, Asia, and North America.

Whether it’s gold bars from Zurich, silver shipments from the port of Tianjin, or other high-value assets — we ensure end-to-end monitoring across the entire transport chain. Working closely with our global partner network, we coordinate every shipment with precision and transparency, from pickup to final delivery.

Our mission remains unchanged: maximum security, premium quality, and absolute reliability — regardless of volume, distance, or destination.

Gold on a Global Route

Shanghai is one of Asia’s most important hubs for precious metals. With our local presence, we combine Swiss precision in transport with China’s logistical strength — secure, efficient, and globally connected.

Tailored Security Concepts – Globally Aligned, Locally Rooted

In Shanghai, we combine global standards with regional expertise. Our clients benefit from a single point of contact who coordinates every stage of transport — from strategic planning and operational execution to international liability coverage. Together with leading insurers and reinsurers connected to the Lloyd’s market, we ensure that every shipment is comprehensively protected.

Especially in cross-border trade between Europe and Asia, speed, transparency, and reliable risk coverage are crucial. We don’t just understand this complexity — we actively manage it. With Swiss precision, a global network, and local market expertise in Shanghai.

Global Transport Corridors – Seamlessly Connected Through Shanghai

Shanghai is one of the world’s most important transportation hubs and our gateway to global markets. Through Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG), the Yangshan and Waigaoqiao seaports, and an extensive logistics network, we organize secure and fully documented transports by air, sea, and land.

As a member of organizations such as LBMA and IATA, we stand for professionalism, transparency, and trust in international security logistics. Every shipment, container, and air freight parcel is monitored with precision, and every process step is meticulously documented — true to our guiding principle: security is built on control and reliability.

Silver in Global Trade

From port to high-security vehicle — our sea freight solutions ensure the safe transport of large silver volumes from China to international markets. Seamlessly monitored, professionally managed, and globally insured.
