OOCL to open own Swiss office
Hong Kong-based Orient Overseas Container Line said today it will establish OOCL (Switzerland) AG in Basel to take over its agency responsibilities in Switzerland from Mat Marine AG, effective Jan. 1.
“OOCL has many important customers in Switzerland and this development is consistent with our global policy of having our own offices in our key markets. Our Swiss customers will be able to fully benefit from OOCL’s sophisticated in-house integrated systems and from OOCL’s network opportunities both via North Europe and via Mediterranean ports,” said Ted Wang, managing director OOCL (Europe) Ltd.
