Chinese logistics leader Worldwide Logistics (WWL) Group and investment firm Nawah have partnered to better serve the growing logistical demands for Asian companies distributing products to the expanding market of southern Iraq.

“Southern Iraq is undergoing unparalleled development today with an expanding middle class of citizens who increasingly demand the continual flow of essential goods from Asian markets. WWL and Nawah have strategically aligned to offer a unique and reliable end-to-end logistical solution to meet these market dynamics,” said Paul Brinkley, Nawah’s president and CEO.

WWL’s warehousing, customs brokerage, terminal handling and freight forwarding capabilities strongly position the company to offer extensive Chinese domestic-logistics services in support of its vast international shipping and logistical offerings.

Nawah Port Management (NPM), one of Nawah’s three major business units, operates a modern, fully containerized terminal at the Port of Basra located in downtown Basra, Iraq.

Along with sister company Nawah Supply & Distribution, NPM offers customers a full spectrum of door-to-door, supply-chain capabilities for cargo being transshipped through Jebel Ali Port in the United Arab Emirates and bound for Iraq’s oil and gas fields and commercial markets.

“Our alliance’s extensive capabilities will allow WWL – in partnership with NPM – to further develop a robust and reliable logistics service from locations throughout China to key sites across Iraq,” said Jacky Lim, WWL’s managing director.

“Together, WWL and Nawah will redefine the China-Iraq trade lane, bringing vast efficiencies to bear where efficiencies have long been absent.” – TradeArabia News Service
