Home furnishings supply chain specialist Zenith Global Logistics, Conover, N.C., has expanded warehousing and distribution capabilities in Asia by adding a humidity-controlled warehouse in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
"The addition of this warehousing in Vietnam is simply another example of our responsiveness to the requests and business needs of our customers, both domestically and internationally," said Steve Wolfe, vice president of Zenith Global. "Vietnam is an important strategic location for a number of our customers, which mirrors the growing amount of sourcing that's being done in that country. Our customers also require a humidity-controlled environment to ensure proper moisture levels are maintained for wood products housed at this location, which has a total capacity of 226,000 square feet."
Zenith Global customers can mix products from this facility and ship in either full, split or less-than-container loads.
"When used in conjunction with our split container program and our U.S. domestic distribution network, this warehouse means customers can literally purchase as little as one item and pay a single through-price, FOB Ho Chi Minh City," Wolfe said.
In the end, our mission is to put logistics solutions in place that make it simple and efficient for customers to conduct, and often build, their businesses, even in this challenging economy, Wolfe says. Vietnam is simply an extension of the dozens of ports throughout Asia, the Pacific Rim, and Europe, where we offer the same diverse range of container programs."
