Gebrüder Weiss expands presence in Oceania


Gebrüder Weiss has announced the opening of national subsidiaries in Australia and New Zealand. The future Air & Sea locations are situated in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia, as well as in Auckland, New Zealand. This move is part of the company’s global strategy to expand into new markets while extending its existing network of locations in the Gebrüder Weiss region of East Asia/Oceania.

To offer customers in its newest market one-stop logistics solutions, Gebrüder Weiss already has a presence in each of the region’s top trading partner countries, including China, the US, Japan, Germany, and South Korea. Business commodities such as vehicles and automotive parts, machines and electronic products, and goods from the food and chemical industries, are imported from the US, Europe, and Southeast Asia to the Oceania region.

“The important thing here is to establish compelling delivery chains in the future, based on our long-standing experience in the logistics market. In this context, we also make sure to tie in with fast-growing transport activities within Asia and create synergies when it comes to the efficient use of transport capacities,” said Michael Zankel, Regional Manager East Asia/Oceania at Gebrüder Weiss.

In May, Gebrüder Weiss opened a new office location in Seoul, South Korea. The new sites in Australia and New Zealand are an essential addition for the company within the region of East Asia/Oceania, which now consists of 35 locations.
