Yusen Logistics : Expands in China with New Sales Offices

Yusen Logistics (China) Co., Ltd. has opened new sales offices in Changzhou and Changshu of China's southern Jiangsu Province. The new offices, which opened for business on 7th September, are part of the Company's overall strategy to strengthen sales in the region to meet with growing demand.

Changzhou and Changshu, located in the center of the Yangtze River delta, are both cities undergoing significant industrial development. Growing logistics demand is expected in the area since hi-tech and automotive companies, including a large number of Japanese companies, have been recently attracted to set up operations there. Moreover, the development of transport infrastructure, improving access to and from major cities such as Shanghai, Suzhou and Wuxi, and widening the economic bloc, is leading to further growth.

Until recently, sales activities in the region were conducted at the Company's Suzhou and Wuxi branch offices, but the opening of additional sales offices was sought in order to provide a more scrupulous logistics service through more regionally-based sales.

Yusen Logistics will increase its sales through offering a variety of services including ocean and air freight forwarding and contract logistics, as well as expanding the workforce to respond to demand.
