The company's portfolio includes origin purchase order management, ocean freight, air freight, and warehousing, including supply chain management services for retail and fashion customers in the US, UK, Europe, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. John Lau, group managing director of Cargo Services Group said, "By joining DP World, we will gain access to extensive resources and expertise, allowing us to continue delivering top-tier freight-forwarding and logistics services that our customers demand".
