Supply chain company Ceva Logistics has expanded its presence in Singapore with a new west hub logistics center in Jalan Buroh. The 48,000-square-meter warehouse and office hub is the company’s largest facility in Singapore.
Located in the western part of the city-state near Jurong Port and accessible from the port and major highways across the island, the multi-user hub seeks to provide warehouse and logistics services to companies in various industries, from energy, oil and gas and industrial to consumer and retail.
Elaine Low, executive vice president for South East Asia said: “Singapore’s strategic location in Asia, combined with the country’s excellent network and international connectivity, makes it an ideal hub for many multinational companies to operate from. We see good potential for the west hub to address new market opportunities as well as grow the sectors in which Ceva already has a stronghold.”
The west hub is a seven-story drive-up warehouse facility with covered and open yard space catering to the specific needs of oil and gas and industrial customers. It will also house Ceva’s Center of Logistics Excellence for Asia Pacific, which was launched late last year. The center offers visitors and customers an opportunity to see and touch real-world logistics at the company, providing them insights into how the company optimizes and enhances visibility and integrates services and technology solutions to power supply-chain efficiency.
The logistics firm will also move its sales and support functions into this facility, together with its IT and Solution Design Center of Competence teams for the region. The move is targeted to be completed by the first quarter of 2015.
