C.H. Robinson Expands Global Forwarding Footprint
Third party logistics provider C.H. Robinson is expanding its global forwarding footprint.
The company recently opened new offices in Asia and Canada and acquired APC Logistics, a leading provider of freight forwarding and customs brokerage services in the Oceania region. These expansions have led to 15 new C.H. Robinson Global Forwarding offices.
“As our customers are going global with their supply chains, we feel that it is crucial to have boots on the ground in those locations as well,” said Mike Short, president of Global Forwarding at C.H. Robinson. “It is exciting to see our services and talent pool expanding in these strategic regions.”
New office locations include Hanoi, Vietnam; Chengdu, China; Nanning, China; Ludhiana, India; Indore, India; Vizag, India; and Vancouver, Canada. With the acquisition of APC Logistics, C.H. Robinson has added nine new office locations in Australia and New Zealand.
Shipments across all of the new offices, including offices acquired through the acquisition, will be integrated into the company’s proprietary technology platform, Navisphere®. The company is committed to having every shipment available in a single instance, global platform from beginning to end.
C.H. Robinson works with 113,000 customers and 71,000 contract carriers through its integrated network of 280 offices and more than 14,000 employees.
