Calgary-based Class I Canadian Pacific Railway (CP) has opened its new Asia home base in Shanghai in an effort to further build its book of business, as well as strengthen existing customer partnerships, the company said in a statement.
Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd. (CP) opened its new Asia office in Shanghai last week, the company said in a statement.
The Calgary-based Class I railway said the move was aimed at further building its book of business, as well as strengthening existing customer partnerships.
The Shanghai office, which will serve as CP’s new home base in Asia, complements the company’s existing offices in Beijing and Tokyo. The company said it will be adding key positions in China to work with current and prospective customers in order to better serve their needs.
“With a third of our existing book of business already touching Asia and exciting opportunities for growth, now is the time for CP to connect with our customers in Shanghai and across the Pacific Rim,” CP President and CEO Keith Creel said at the official opening ceremony. “We have been working hard to strengthen relationships with our customers in Asia and are thrilled to finally put down roots in a market that is so influential to our business. We believe that providing on-the-ground support to connect with our customers is the best way to continue to enhance the best-in-class service CP has become known for.”
