Yusen Logistics inaugurates new logistics centre in Duisburg Port

Yusen Logistics GmbH realized its fourth expansion phase in the Port of Duisburg today. The 26,000m2 logistics complex was built by the Duisport Group on one of the last available plots on the logport I site in nearly nine months. The globally active logistics service provider Yusen Logistics has now expanded its capacities at the location to around 70,000m2 of storage area.

“The new logistics facility is already the fourth expansion by NYK / Yusen Logistics on logport I and shows the strategic significance that the logistics service provider attaches to the Duisburg location,” says Erich Staake, Chief Executive Officer of Duisburger Hafen AG. The duisport Group has invested around 16 million Euro in the new construction and handed it over to Yusen Logistics in due time.

“The expansion adjacent to our existing logistics facilities is an important step for us, which makes a new range of logistics services possible for our customers in Germany and Europe,” says Seiji Yuzen, Managing Director of Yusen Logistics GmbH.

Yusen Logistics was convinced of logport as a logistics location from the very beginning. As early as 1999, when Duisburger Hafen AG the company was still called New Wave, the Japanese logistics service provider was the first customer to locate on the logport I site. The main customers of Yusen in the Port of Duisburg include well-known manufacturers of consumer and production goods, global Japanese corporations and car manufacturers among them.
