SEKO Logistics (SEKO), the leader in end-to-end global logistics, has officially opened its new warehouse in Shanghai\u2019s Waigaoqiao area. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The occasion was marked by an opening ceremony attended by representatives of the customer, the Waigaoqiao Administrative Committee and local industry partners.<\/p>\n

The new site deepens SEKO\u2019s contract logistics footprint in one of China\u2019s most important trade gateways and strengthens the company\u2019s ability to support manufacturers operating in and out of the region.<\/p>\n

Developed in partnership with a leading connectivity solutions company operating in the Waigaoqiao bonded area, the 8,300-square-meter bonded facility brings raw materials and finished goods operations together under one roof. It provides the customer with a dedicated, scalable logistics platform designed around inventory control, operational visibility and responsiveness to production demand.<\/p>\n

Separate areas for receiving, storage, packing, staging and shipping, plus a temperature- and humidity-controlled zone.<\/p>\n

The Waigaoqiao facility adds to SEKO\u2019s growing presence across Greater China, where a network of nine offices connects customers to the company\u2019s worldwide air, ocean, customs, compliance and fulfillment capabilities. Shanghai serves as one of SEKO\u2019s primary logistics hubs in the region.<\/p>\n

For SEKO, the opening reflects a broader strategy of investing in capacity where its customers\u2019 supply chains are concentrated, pairing on-the-ground expertise in China with the reach of its global network.<\/p>\n

Frank Achouch, Vice President Commercial, SEKO APAC and Managing Director, Seko Greater China: \u201cShanghai is a critical gateway for our customers\u2019 supply chains, and the new Waigaoqiao warehouse gives us a stronger platform from which to support their growth. It combines local execution with SEKO\u2019s global logistics capabilities while reflecting the trust and shared commitment that underpin this important customer partnership.\u201d<\/p>\n

With dedicated local operations and customer service teams, supported by SEKO China\u2019s wider functional expertise, the new site strengthens SEKO\u2019s ability to combine warehousing and inventory management with freight forwarding and customs services for customers in Shanghai and the surrounding region.<\/p>\n

This integrated approach gives customers access to a single logistics partner across warehousing, transportation and international trade requirements.<\/p>\n

Working as one project team, SEKO and the customer took the warehouse from contract award to full operation in around two months. Finished goods and raw materials were transitioned through carefully staged phases designed to support operational continuity.<\/p>\n

Lucia Fu, Vice President of Commercial and Operations, China at SEKO Logistics: \u201cThe successful go-live reflects the close coordination and disciplined execution of the customer and SEKO teams. Together, we have created a scalable operational foundation that can continue to evolve through greater visibility, system integration and automation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The facility has been designed as an evolving operational platform. The continuous improvement roadmap includes dashboard development, improved accessibility, very narrow aisle storage, electronic data interchange, RFID and additional value-added services.<\/p>\n

Future concepts under evaluation include autonomous mobile robots, forklift mobile robots and an automated pallet packaging line.<\/p>\n

These initiatives are intended to improve process visibility, storage efficiency, system integration and operational standardization as requirements evolve. Final configurations and implementation schedules remain subject to the project roadmap.<\/p>\n
