La società cinese e quella britannica siglano un accordo per offrire soluzioni globali di supply chain dedicate ad imprese medie e grandi.

Due grandi compagnie logistiche hanno siglato un'intesa per offrire servizi alle imprese che producono e distribuiscono merci tra Asia ed Europa. L'accordo ha lo scopo di offrire soluzioni di supply chain a chi produce in Asia e distribuisce in Europa e, ovviamente, viceversa. Kerry Logistics, che ha sede a Honk Kong, seguirà le operazioni asiatiche, mentre la britannica Wincanton coprirà il territorio europeo. Il servizio è dedicato a diversi settori, dal retail ai prodotti di largo consumo, dall'elettronica al comparto automobilistico.

"La nuova joint venture consentirà alle due compagnie di soddisfare la crescente domanda di gestione esterna della catena logistica in Europa e Asia", spiega Vincent Wong, che segue l'operazione per Kerry Logistics. La società cinese offre un servizio completo di stoccaggio, trasporto e distribuzione, con una presenza capillare in 1100 località in Cina ed in altri 23 Paesi in tutto il mondo. Wincanton ha una presenza altrettanto capillare in Europa e serve diverse grandi imprese.

Kerry Logistics ha recentemente siglato un altro importante accordo con Talke Logistic Services per fornire servizi di logistica dedicata al settore chimico all'interno del territorio cinese. Talke è una società tedesca che ha sede a Colonia ed è specializzata nei trasporti di prodotti chimici. Nel 2005, il commercio estero cinese in questo settore ha superato i 133 miliardi di dollari e mostra una continua crescita. L'accordo potrebbe prevedere anche una piattaforma logistica dedicata alla chimica nella zona di Shanghai."
