ContainerPort Group expands intermodal network into Houston, Texas

CLEVELAND, OH – May 26, 2017 – ContainerPort Group, Inc. (CPG) expands its drayage network into Houston, Texas officially on May 15, 2017. Port Houston handles roughly two-thirds of the region’s container trade and positions CPG to exceed customer demands, with their drayage terminal strategically placed between the two main ports, Barbours Cut Container Terminal and Bayport Container Terminal. The recent developments with the Panama Canal expansion allows for larger berth vessels to bypass the West Coast ports in favor of Gulf Coast terminals with better access to destinations.

With over 45 years of intermodal experience, CPG is more excited than ever to add more capacity to their growing logistics footprint. Senior VP of Commercial, Jim Kramer states, “CPG follows the needs of their customers and we have seen a strong increase in demand for drayage in the South.

Kramer added, “This strategic expansion allows our customers to use a drayage provider in Houston that they already trust and serves them well in other regions. CPG now has more capacity to handle their growth, and we are happy to offer more lanes to get their cargo where it needs to go.”

WDS completes relocation into larger warehousing & distribution facility in Savannah, GA

CLEVELAND, OH – May 24, 2017 – World Distribution Services (WDS) is pleased to announce the relocation of its larger and newly built warehousing and distribution facility in Savannah, GA, close to the Gateway of American Commerce, the Port of Savannah. The state-of-the-art 150,000 square-foot facility, with contiguous expansion space, is now fully operational.

Located just 5 minutes away from the Port of Savannah with easy access to the Interstate, the new WDS Class-A facility boasts 20 dock doors, increased security with cameras, dock height and ground level access, and indoor loading, crossdock and transload capabilities. It is also Liquor Permitted, USDA and FDA Certified. All of these features enable WDS to provide exceptional warehousing and distribution services for customers in the machinery, chemical, automotive, food, beverage, and apparel industries. Previously WDS was leasing a 100,000 square-foot warehouse in Savannah, GA that has now transitioned to the new location with room to grow.

The transition was spurred to meet the increasing need for warehousing and distribution space in the region. According to JOC, growing Asian import traffic and e-commerce have been fueling the demand for space, with the port of Savannah having its busiest year ever in loaded container traffic in 2016, handling 2.94 million twenty-foot equivalent container units, a 2.5 percent increase over the prior year.

“We are pleased to have taken another step forward in executing our strategic expansion plans on the US East Coast,” said Senior Vice President, John Morrow. “A critical part of this development was to ensure we secured additional contiguous space to grow into. The recent deal includes 100,000 square feet of expansion space in addition to the current 150,000 sq. ft. warehousing space. This will allow us to continue our commitment supporting our clients’ distribution needs in the Southeast. Our clients’ businesses are growing, and so is their need for warehousing space. We are here to meet that need now and in the future.”

As part of The World Group, WDS also expanded their logistics network with their intermodal drayage company, who have added a significant number of trucks into the market to support WDS and World Shipping clients. WDS continues to bring competitive advantage to the Savannah market and enjoys becoming an active member in the local maritime logistics community.

The new facility is located at:

Cleveland Asset-Based Forwarder, UWL, Expands Operations into Nashville, Tennessee

Press Release

CLEVELAND, OH (March 29, 2017) – UWL, Inc. has expanded operations into Nashville, Tennessee. UWL manages a network of its own drayage and warehouse operations across the USA, and links their assets to their forwarding operations to help control risks and costs to their end clients.

The new location came to fruition in the fourth quarter of 2016, solidifying UWL’s presence in the South and complementing their Ohio Valley and U.S. East Coast (USEC) operations. Recently, UWL also expanded their trucking capacity for drayage in the Memphis and Nashville areas, bringing this region unparalleled access to the world through UWL’s world-class transportation infrastructure.

Michelle Street, UWL’s General Manager, believes this new location holds substantial opportunities for the company. She states, “The beauty of Nashville is that it doesn’t depend on one sector for the city’s economy to thrive. You have several major companies that are headquartered in Nashville, including Bridgestone, Dollar General, Cracker Barrel, Nissan North America, Tractor Supply and many others. This is an exciting time for UWL Nashville to capitalize on the city’s growth.”

By expanding regionally, UWL also avoids centralized automation and builds upon their customer-oriented culture, keeping their services close to clients. Street adds, “By using regional offices staffed with local talent, we ensure that every member of our team is knowledgeable in the market. This allows us to provide personalized, courteous, and attentive customer assistance – a ‘live’ person with whom the client can connect that is familiar with the region.”

Nashville is most notably known as a music epicenter, earning it the nickname “Music City.” The city also is a center for health care, banking and transportation industries that touch several multinational corporations and their respective Tier II and Tier III suppliers. Since Nashville is centrally located to serve major cities within Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina and Arkansas, it opens up additional Southeast distribution channels to UWL.

On April 13th, UWL Nashville will officially commemorate their new office with an invitation-only open house. UWL Nashville is “here and here to stay”, says Vice President of Global Operations, Joe Pugh. The open house will offer an introduction to clients as well as host vendors, including local drayage companies.

Open House: Thursday, April 13th
Hours: 10:00 – 14:00 CST
Location: UWL Nashville Office

The Nashville office offers all of UWL’s world-class products and services, and is located at:

Asset-based Forwarder UWL Coordinates Customs Brokerage Services with Great Lakes Vessel Husbandry Business of World Shipping, Inc.

Press Release

CLEVELAND, OH (November 2, 2016) – UWL, LLC, an asset-based global forwarder, continues to quickly accelerate their growing portfolio since coordinating their customs brokerage services with parent company, World Shipping, Inc. A customs house broker (CHB), is a critical service provided by logistics companies to ensure that import cargo is correctly cleared with US customs. They are licensed by the U.S. Treasury Department after passing a rigorous written examination and an extensive background investigation.

“We are no longer just clearing traditional containerized imports and airfreight, but are now clearing the international bulk vessels coming into the Great Lakes today,” states Shannon Dillinger, licensed CHB at UWL. Dillinger, who offers 18 years of experience, utilizes her quality team of logistics professionals to remain competitive. “Where a traditional container vessel would require thousands of clearances, a single bulk vessel may only require a few or sometimes just one, if all the cargo is on one Bill of Lading. The main difference, however, is that you have to be on call 24 x 7 for these types of clearances and the vessels are not arriving in exact schedules like the liner vessels. This type of service takes on a whole new level for our brokerage team, as we now have to be a 24 x 7 operation.”

It is no surprise to observers that UWL would expand their comprehensive services, as World Shipping, Inc. has been in the vessel agency business for over 55 years and handles both saltwater and laker vessels in the Great Lakes. Jackie Csiszar, World Shipping’s Director-Vessel Operations, told us, “Today, we are the largest vessel agency in the U.S. and Great Lakes, with recent expansion into Lake Ontario, Canada. This new service allows the World Shipping Group of companies to expand our services to the customer. Our big advantage is that we work seamlessly internally, as we know the exact movement, berthing of the vessels and our customs brokerage team is just down the hall from my team, so we all work in unison.”

World Shipping has continued to grow significantly in 2016 and has added many jobs locally at their corporate headquarters. Today, they are now the largest logistics company in the Cleveland area.

Customs House Brokerage business inquiries may be directed to Shannon Dillinger at s.dillinger@shipUWL.com or 440.895.8212.
