Rhenus Expands Warehousing Solutions in Asia-Pacific

Rhenus Logistics‘ Warehousing Solutions are a central element of its integrated supply chain solutions for the procurement and distribution of goods. The warehouses are designed for multiple and single users and form a comprehensive network in Europe, Asia-Pacific, South Africa and the Americas. 

In addition to technology-driven innovations implemented in Europe, Rhenus Logistics has developed special in-house solutions to support and optimize existing customers‘ warehouse and production processes.  Its proprietary Rhenus Warehousing System, customized for the Asia Pacific region, will enhance cross-border security with centralized monitoring and control of the processes.  

Following the recent acquisition of a logistics company in Singapore and the addition of its largest warehouse in Thailand, Rhenus Logistics now offers end-to-end logistic solutions in Asia-Pacific for Greater China, Hong Kong, India, Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam. The company plans to expand steadily with an average of a new warehouse added every 3 months, extending its global experience to the region with a comprehensive portfolio of storage types. 

Rhenus Thailand opened the Bangna-Trad KM.19 warehouse - a 10,000 square-meter multi-user facility that covers 11,000 pallet locations, on June 2019 in Thailand, expanding its food cold storage facilities to include alcohol and Halal Food Grade products. In Singapore, the acquisition of Triways Logistics, a local player in the warehousing and supply chain industry, in May 2019 adds a 10,000 square-meter warehouse, expanding its service portfolio in warehousing service and distribution solutions. Rhenus Philippines similarly added four new warehouses this year, and currently has 13 warehouses strategically located islandwide. Rhenus Indonesia is currently finalizing plans to start offering warehousing services, and more details will be provided closer to date. 

The warehousing solutions will integrate seamlessly with Rhenus‘ domestic distribution services, which includes domestic transport and road freight, and reduces potential security risk and damage for cross-border deliveries.
