Hampshire-based PSP Worldwide Logistics has announced that it has formed a brand-new joint venture in Hong Kong, PSP Logistics Hong Kong, significantly expanding its ability to provide end-to-end expertise to its customers.
PSP Worldwide Logistics has seen a substantial increase in demand for project shipping across the region requiring specific specialist knowledge. Shipping these large, heavy, and often delicate cargos requires complex planning, and specialist competencies and skills. Due to this increased demand, managing director Frank Dixie saw an opportunity to open a new office. “Hong Kong and China are both big manufacturing markets for project shippers. Our long-term agents are very established in the region and their objectives align with our ambitious strategic plans. Our strong position in niche project shipping and our partner’s invaluable local and regional knowledge and network, make this new business a force to be reckoned with.”
PSP Worldwide Logistics’ Finance Director Darron Strange has been in Hong Kong this week with the JV partners and the new freight forwarding employee, signing the final contracts ready for the company to start working immediately. With support and training provided by the UK office this promises to be an exciting and successful partnership. “I have spent time this week with our partners from Unitex International Forwarding, finalising our business plan and contractual obligations and mutual expectations. This is a new chapter for us at PSP Worldwide Logistics and we are delighted to have an office in this region after so many years.”
The office opened for business on the 8th August 2023.
