DUBAI: United Arab Shipping Company (UASC), a global shipping company based in the Middle East, announced today that it will open a wholly owned representation in the Swiss market as of January 1 2015.
UASC’s new agency in Switzerland will be a subsidiary of UASAC Deutschland GmbH and will take over all agency activities from Fiege Logistics, which successfully represented UASC in the Swiss market for 24 years.
The change in representation in Switzerland is part of UASC’s growth plan and customer-focused strategy, and it highlights the importance of the Swiss market for UASC. Additionally, UASC’s recent cooperation agreements with Ocean Three and Hamburg Sud will unlock access to several new markets for European customers, in general, and for Swiss customers, specifically.
“The Swiss market is growing rapidly and this represents a great opportunity for UASC to further strengthen our presence and improve customer accessibility and services,” said Detlev Kerber, Vice President of the UASC Europe Cluster.
