The new office, located at LTG Y12 Building, is part of Yusen Logistics’ plans to gain a foothold in Mindanao, as well as cater to the continuous market growth and soaring demand, in the region. Yusen Logistics said it is also working on creating better connections with Davao-based firms.

The new office is strategically located near Davao-Sasa port and Davao International Airport. It can also handle shipments going through Cagayan de Oro.

With over 27 years of experience in the logistics sector, Yusen Logistics also has offices and warehouses across Metro Manila, Northern and Southern Luzon, Visayas, and now in Mindanao.

The local arm of Japanese-based Yusen Logistics Co. Ltd., Yusen Logistics Philippines offers end-to-end supply chain solutions with services covering international freight forwarding for both air and sea, and contract logistics that can handle both bonded and regular transactions.

Revised on Oct 7, 10:46am to reflect the office not being the first in Mindanao to be established.
