United Arab Shipping Company (UASC), a leading Middle Eastern based container shipping line and emerging global carrier, announced the establishment of a wholly UASC operated agency in Jordan. The announcement marks another milestone in UASC's ambitious growth plans and reiterates a strong customer focused approach in realizing these plans.

Uffe ?tergaard, Chief Commercial Officer UASC said, "Jordan is a key market for UASC in the Middle East and we are committed to ensuring our customers there are provided with the highest quality of service excellence and reliability standards. We have invested in a recruitment drive to ensure the right people are joining the agency team, delivering the highest standards of customer service and commercial expertise."

UASC assists customers with effective and efficient solutions for example when importing food, construction materials and home appliances or exporting raw materials.

Offering widespread services, there are three weekly competitive services calling at Aqaba port; two of which are direct from the Far East. Moreover, UASC's cooperation agreements with leading shipping lines will provide global access to all major markets for Jordanian customers.
