MSAS Global Logistics, the global logistics operating company of Ocean Group plc, earlier this year launched its new global brand. Behind the new brand is the combined expertise, networks and skills from the established businesses of MSAS Cargo International, McGregor Cory, Intexo, Marken, Mercury, Higgs, Skyking, A.W.Fenton, Airlink, Freight Express International and Dutch Air. This means that MSAS Global Logistics is able to provide a unified, globally consistent product offering to customers through a global network spanning 550 locations, in 112 countries. Ian Smith, MSAS Global Logistics' commercial Director, explains what MSAS Global Logistics represents: "One of the issues facing companies when they evaluate their supply chain requirements is that the majority of logistics providers promise efficiencies and cost reductions, but struggle to realise them. We believe that our commitment to learning about our clients' businesses, to designing tailored logistics programmes and then implementing them across our strong global network will really deliver this promise of logistics." The organisation supports supply chain operations by building customised programmes from a complete range of service capabilities: global transportation, regional distribution, inventory control, warehousing, value-added services, information management and supply chain solutions. MSAS Global Logistics is part of Ocean Group plc, a world leader in global logistics with over 15,000 people and an annual turnover exceeding £1.1. billion.
