Gebruder Weiss launches a LCL route from Singapore to Tbilisi 26 June 2014

Connecting more closely with the Near East and Central Asia

Gebruder Weiss is expanding its service portfolio in Air & Sea logistics. The Company now offers a weekly groupage freight transport container service (LCL) from Singapore to Tbilisi. With the new Singapore-Tbilisi LCL route, the 3PL is connecting the South-East and East Asian markets even more closely with the Near East and Central Asia.

This combines freight from neighbouring Asian sea ports and ships the goods each week in consolidated containers via the Georgian port city of Poti directly to Tbilisi.

The Company’s site opened in Tbilisi last year is becoming a central hub in the Caucasus region. The bordering landlocked countries of Azerbaijan and Armenia can now also be serviced from all over Asia with regular LCL services.

For Gebruder Weiss Georgia, the introduction of the Singapore-Tbilisi LCL service represents the consolidation of another important strategic step, integrating it into the global sea freight groupage transport network of Gebruder Weiss Gwconsolution

The groupage sea freight product Gwconsolution includes the organisation and implementation of less than container loads via dedicated LCL gateways. Gebruder Weiss currently offers the new groupage freight product on more than 90 routes. Another LCL route, from the US to Georgia, is also about to be launched.
