Logwin Opens Own Location in Dubai Airport Free Zone
LUXEMBOURG, Feb. 4 /PRNewswire-Asia-AsiaNet/ --
The logistics service provider Logwin is now strategically even better positioned in Dubai. Logwin has
opened a new additional office in the Dubai Airport Free Zone Authority (DAFZA). The office is situated in the
immediate vicinity of the airlines and is the company's second location in Dubai. The staff began operations on
20 January 2010, managed by Satish Kumar. The focus is the processing of air freight.
In order to further improve the service for customers in Dubai, Logwin is not just employing experienced
staff from its first location in the Al Musalla Tower at its new DAFZA office, but has taken on new staff, in
particular in the area of sales. A total of 13 staff in the new office takes care of customers. "Opening the
second office makes sense in order to further expedite the processing of global air freight transport while
retaining the same high level of quality," says Hauke Mueller, Managing Director Region Europe Middle East
at the Logwin business segment Air + Ocean. "This will allow us to significantly increase the number of
processed shipments and improve our service to customers."
Around 300 companies currently have their main office in the DAFZA. Most of them are global players
maintaining business connections around the world. Logwin customers from the technology and luxury goods
industry as well as from the automotive sector are also based here. "Customer proximity is not just another
phrase for us - it is something we practice," explains Hauke Mueller. "In Dubai, we have bucked the trend and
succeeded in growing. With the new office we have created the conditions for continuing on this successful
course."
