Cargo-partner opens Istanbul site

[ July 4, 2023   //   ]

Austrian forwarder Cargo-partner, which recently announced its sale to Japan’s Nippon Express, has opened a 20,000sq m logistics centre in Istanbul. Close to the new Istanbul airport and the region’s main seaports, it offers a wide range of logistics services to customers in Türkiye (Turkey). The site includes 5,850sq m of bonded warehouse area, along with 20,000 pallet spaces and 17 loading docks.

Cargo-partner says it will create more than 85 new jobs, increasing the total number of cargo-partner employees in Türkiye to almost 250 by the end of the year across its eleven locations in the country.

The site also provides the new head office for Cargo-partner’s head office in Türkiye.

Since Türkiye was struck by devastating earthquakes in February 2023, the forwarder has worked  with non-profit organizations to support local relief activities including numerous trucks with supplies to the worst-affected areas.
