SBS Worldwide Continues to Expand Partner Network "The Benelux region is one of the major centres for European distribution for many U.S. companies so strengthening our presence there is vital for business," says Lars Kloch, CEO Freight Division, SBS Worldwide.
27th March 2013 -- SBS Worldwide has added the Dutch logistics company OTX Solutions to its worldwide network of partners.
Both independently-owned companies have ambitious plans for growth, focussing on supply chain management and building close relationships with global customers.
SBS recently launched fixed day airfreight consolidation services between New York's JFK Airport and Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam partly as a result of the new partnership agreement.
"The Benelux region is one of the major centres for European distribution for many U.S. companies so strengthening our presence there is vital for business," says Lars Kloch, CEO Freight Division, SBS Worldwide.
OTX Solutions is headquartered at Schiphol Airport, with an office in Rotterdam, Europe's busiest container port. It offers the full range of services including supply chain solutions, air and sea freight shipments and warehousing and inland distribution. It has a particular expertise in designing end-to-end supply chains for the high-tech and electronic markets as well as managing the distribution of fashion and promotional products.
SBS Worldwide has offices throughout the US, the UK and China and has already formed partnerships with logistics companies in Scandinavia, Switzerland, India and Italy.
"We are an independent and innovative company and make sure that we work with like-minded partners worldwide to ensure the highest quality standards are maintained throughout the supply chain process," explains Mr Kloch.
"The Netherlands is a tier one transport gateway to the heart of Europe and it is therefore extremely important for us to have a strong local partner there. OTX is ambitious company just like SBS and I am sure our customers will benefit greatly from the partnership."
