Ongoing investment in facilities
ISSUE 52

Since our last newsletter, we have continued to reinvest in our logistics hubs around the world.

U-Freight America’s logistics hub in Chicago,  which is more than double the size of our previous facility, is now fully operational and has plenty of racked space for your palletised freight, and offers great access to Chicago O’Hare International airport one of the country’s most important international gateways.

The multimodal facility facilitates all of U-Freight America’s air and ocean freight operations, as well as its ever-growing presence in the e-commerce logistics business in the markets across the US Mid West.

In Los Angeles, re-racking of our wholly-owned logistics hub in the City of Industry is now complete providing an 80,000 sq ft hub from which U-Freight America offers fully-integrated logistics services.

Both logistics hubs include enhanced E-commerce Fulfillment Centres (EFCs), in which the U-Freight Group is investing at many of its facilities across Asia, Europe and North America. Currently, research is being undertaken on the introduction of automation and robotics in the near future.

Meanwhile, in the Netherlands, our decision to integrate our air freight, logistics and eCommerce operations at one enhanced location is proving to have been a wise one. Business, much of it e-commerce related, is booming at the facility, which has 1,000 sq m of storage space and 325 sq m of offices, and is located in Rijsenhout, close to Schiphol airport.
