The FMC received a non-vessel-operating common carrier license application from VDS USA, Gardena, Calif. (Dongwon Lee, chief executive officer); and NVO/ocean freight forwarder license applications from Felix Logistics, Buena Park, Calif. (Brian B. Kim, president); Flexport International, San Francisco (Michael Baekboel, manager); Focuscargo, Miami (Justo Aguiar, president); and Hopeway, City of Industry, Calif. (Qiu Sheng “David” Zhang, vice president).
The agency also received an application for a change to a qualifying individual from CMX Global Logistics, El Segundo, Calif. (Cody N. Shawe, manager).
Persons knowing of any reason why an applicant should not receive an OTI license or amendment are urged to contact the FMC’s Office of Transportation Intermediaries in Washington, D.C., at (202) 523-5843. Lists of licensed OTIs (applications approved, bonds in place and fully licensed) — both ocean freight forwarders and NVOs — are also available on the FMC website.
