Yusen Logistics has established new corporation in Laos, People’s Democratic Republic, to meet the anticipated demand for logistics in the landlocked country. Yusen Logistics (Lao) Co., Ltd will commence operations in January 2019. The new company will have its headquarters in Vientiane and its branch in Pakse to provide a range of logistics services, including ocean and air freight forwarding, domestic delivery, cross-border truck transportation, and customs clearance, as well as warehousing and logistics consultancy services.
“Laos, a landlocked country surrounded by China, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, is expected to see further demand for logistics as a hub connecting countries with the advantages of its location at the heart of the Mekong region,” informs the company through a statement.
The real GDP growth rate in Laos has remained at around 7 percent in recent years, with high economic growth rates continuing. Infrastructure development is proceeding mainly in the Economic Corridor of the Mekong region. In addition to investment from Japan and China, foreign companies that have already established operations in Thailand as Thailand+1 are attracting attention.
