SWEDISH logistics company Greencarrier, eager to strengthen its presence in China, is opening two new offices in south China's Ningbo and Xiamen in addition to the existing offices in Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong.
Its Ningbo office opened on September 1 and is a branch of Greencarrier Shanghai Limited, while the Xiamen office will be open on October 1 to handle cargo shipments in Xiamen, the special economic zone in Fujian province, and Fuzhou, the provincial capital.
"As we do in our southern offices, we will offer a complete range of logistics products including sea/air services, 3PL and distribution centre solutions for garments. For us, these sectors have become our specialities since there is considerable demand for companies with the skill to be able to manage these more complex activities," said Greencarrier chief operations officer Niklas Olsson.
Mr Olsson said Greencarrier is also keen to penetrate the north China market too. "We are looking at Dalian, Qingdao and Tianjin and have set a target date of early 2012, although it may happen before that," he said.
