PT. Yusen Logistics Solutions Indonesia strengthens contract logistics business by relocating and expanding warehouse facilities in MM2100 Industrial Town, Jakarta, in November 2017.

MM2100 Industrial Town is strategically located as a logistics hub, offering good access to Jakarta, the Port of Tanjung Priok, and Soekarno–Hatta International Airport. The surrounding area is also home to a large number of companies centered on manufacturing operations and is seeing ongoing infrastructure improvements, so the industrial town is expected to expand further.

The company owns three warehouses in MM2100 Industrial Town and operates them independently. Warehouse No. 3 will relocate within the industrial town, doubling its warehouse space to 11,000 square metres. It will go into operation in this November. As a result, the total floor area of the three warehouses in MM2100 Industrial Town will increase to approximately 45,000 square metres, the largest of any logistics provider in the industrial town. Using our accumulated know-how, we will respond to increased demand for logistics services.

Yusen Logistics has three Indonesian subsidiaries: PT. Yusen Logistics Solutions Indonesia, PT Puninar Yusen Logistics Indonesia, which also provides warehouse services, and PT. Yusen Logistics Indonesia, which provides ocean and air freight forwarding services. Yusen Logistics Group is working to strengthen internal collaboration, with D. Budijanto becoming president director of all three companies in April this year. It has also centralised PT. Yusen Logistics Solutions Indonesia as a contact window for contract logistics business and prepared a system for expanding the business.

Yusen Logistics Group in Indonesia continues to combine its services across warehousing, ocean and air freight forwarding, road transport, and customs clearance, providing supply chain logistics to meet customer needs.
