This will give the company an immediate footprint in the economic Central and West Provinces of Saudi Arabia as part of its strategic expansion plan. With one additional office planned for 2024 in Dammam in the East province, this emphasises a market in which the company sees great potential.

Scan Global Logistics' (SGL) growth journey continues with the acquisition of Foppiani Shipping & Logistics, an Italian freight forwarder with a head office in Prato. With the acquisition, SGL brings ‘Uncomplicate Your World’ to the eighth-largest economy in the world and the third-largest economy in the European Union for the first time. Foppiani, founded in 2007, is an independent freight forwarder focusing on customers in fashion and retail, automotive and a variety of other sectors.

Scan Global Logistics (SGL), a leading global provider of transport and logistics solutions, and Hapag-Lloyd, one of the world's largest container shipping lines, proudly announce a significant partnership with a multimillion-dollar ocean biofuel initiative.

Following the successful entry in Kenya, Scan Global Logistics has opened its second office in the country in the coastal city of Mombasa. As the major port of discharge in the region, the seaport serves as the gateway to East and Central Africa. In collaboration with the existing Nairobi office, the dual representation will enable SGL to compete effectively with industry leaders and provide customers with competitive local and regional logistics solutions.

Scan Global Logistics continues to expand its presence in Europe by opening a new office in Marseille, marking its fourth establishment in France since its initial opening in Lille in 2021. This new office provides direct access to France's second-largest commercial port area, and trade routes to Asia, particularly China and the USA, will be of primary importance initially. However, the port's direct connectivity to Africa and the Middle East presents significant business prospects in these regions.

Windward’s solution will provide Scan Global Logistics’ customers with a single source of truth of real-time ocean freight data, enhanced visibility, and the tools to optimise decision-making and manage by exception for increased on-time performance.
