Global third-party logistics provider Dachser SE has opened a new branch office in Hanoi, Vietnam, as well as new facilities in Hong Kong and Mumbai, India, the company said in a statement.
The new Vietnam office will support the company’s existing location in Ho Chi Minh City in serving growing demand for logistics export services throughout the country. The branch office will provide air and sea freight (full containerload and less-than-containerload) to Europe, Central Asia, and the U.S., as well as warehousing and value-added services as required.
In Hong Kong, Dachser is moving to a new office in Tsuen Wan in the New Territories area in order to bring its ocean, airfreight, and logistics management teams under a single roof. The company’s transit warehouse in Tsuen Wan will continue to be used for airfreight, while the branch office in Tsing Yi will handle contract logistics.
“The expansion of Dachser Asia Pacific is vital for our customers in the USA as a substantial amount of cargo is imported from these areas,” said Dachser USA President and CEO Frank Guenzerodt. “The local Asian expertise and the close proximity to the suppliers at origin in Asia ensure an expertly managed supply chain solution.”
“Many manufacturers, particularly those in the textile, shoe, and electronics industries, have established production facilities in northern Vietnam. The location of our office in Hanoi will allow us to work in closer proximity to our customers in this area,” added Michael Deisemann, Dachser Managing Director Air & Sea Logistics Vietnam.
In addition, the company has relocated its regional India office to Mumbai in an effort be closer to its brand name customers and increase communication among internal departments. A total of 100 workers will be employed at the new office, including air, ocean, customs and operational staff.
“India has long been a very strong market for Dachser,” said Guenzerodt. “The extensive and increasing coverage assists USA importers and exporters with the intricacies of Indian transportation and provides seamless logistics for USA customers.”
