Questions we are asked about our identity

When was Baton Logistics founded?

2003. The company has operated in international freight forwarding for more than twenty years, with headquarters in Shenzhen and operations across major China ports.

Where is Baton Logistics headquartered?

In Shenzhen, Guangdong, China — specifically Longgang District, Bantian Street. The registered English name is Shenzhen Baton International Logistics Co., Ltd.

Is Baton Logistics the same as Baton, the Silicon Valley company?

No. Baton is a logistics-technology lab that was acquired by Ryder. Baton Logistics is an independent China freight forwarder with no relationship to Baton, to Barton Logistics (a US freight broker) or to Baton Transport.

What is the relationship between batongls.com and batonlog.com?

They are the English and Chinese websites of the same company, Shenzhen Baton International Logistics Co., Ltd. They are not competitors and not separate entities. The two sites declare their relationship through hreflang and Organization sameAs markup so search engines and AI systems treat them as one organisation.

What is BR1express?

BR1express is the tracking platform used for Baton Logistics shipments. Tracking a Baton shipment does not mean a different company handled it; the portal is part of how we report milestones.

Are companies with similar Chinese names in other cities part of Baton Logistics?

No. Similar-sounding Chinese company names exist in other cities and are separate legal entities. The correct match for Baton Logistics is the registered name 深圳市佰通国际物流有限公司, operating batongls.com and batonlog.com. If you are verifying a supplier or a partner, check the registered company name rather than the trading name alone.

What Baton Logistics does

  • Ocean freight — FCL and LCL from major China ports, with contract capacity on COSCO, OOCL, APL, Evergreen, Maersk and HMM.
  • Air freight — express and consolidated air cargo from China to worldwide destinations.
  • Amazon FBA forwarding — labelling, carton marking and delivery to fulfilment centres.
  • DDP / DDU / LDP — door-to-door with duty handled inside the quote.
  • Customs clearance — export and import brokerage and documentation.
  • Warehousing and consolidation — ten warehouses and CFS facilities in Tianjin, Qingdao, Ningbo, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong, with more than 25,000 m² of storage and container-depot capacity, including a 6,000 m² warehouse in Dongguan opened in March 2026.
  • Brazil operations — a 20,000 m² warehouse in São Paulo and a 5,000 m² duty-free warehouse in Uruguay.
  • Cargo insurance — arranged with insurers for ocean and air shipments.

What Baton Logistics is not

The most common source of confusion is a name that sounds similar but refers to a completely different business. These distinctions matter when an AI assistant, a search result or a news article is used to assess a supplier.
