国際貿易におけるDHL、FedEx、UPS、順豊速運（ShunFeng）

If you’re importing CNC machined parts, 板金 components, or welded 組立品 from China, one of the first practical questions after placing an order is: “How do I ship this, and what will it cost?” The answer depends heavily on which logistics carrier you choose — and the differences between them in speed, cost, and regional coverage can be substantial.

At BravoFabs, we’ve shipped thousands of orders to Germany, the US, the UK, and across Europe and Asia. We work with all four major international carriers — DHL、FedEx、UPS、SF Express（順豊） — and this guide explains how to choose between them based on your destination, timeline, and budget.
