Logistics Plus expands in East Africa

Logistics Plus has expanded its presence in east Africa with four new locations in Nairobi and Mombasa in Kenya, Kampala in Uganda and Juba in South Sudan. 
The expansion will allow the US-headquartered supply chain specialist to provide additional logistics and warehousing throughout the entire east Africa corridor, including Burundi, Tanzania, Somalia, and the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
Among the highlighted capabilities of the Logistics Plus network are 1,300 trucks in east Africa, all fitted with tracking devices for real-time positioning. It also has Customs clearance licenses in all countries, 90,000 sq ft of warehousing space in Nairobi and licenses to operate its own aircraft.
“These expanded capabilities in east Africa provide a nice complement to our already extensive presence in northern Africa and the Middle East,” said Jim Berlin, founder and chief executive of Logistics Plus.
“The east Africa community is an integral part of the African economy. Lin Siew Hua, our director of operations and business development for the Middle East and Africa, and her entire team, have been doing a great job representing and expanding the Logistics Plus banner and our trademark services to these important and developing areas of the world.”
