Allport merges with CS

The two companies have been working together for 20 years having established the Far East Cargo Line NVOCC network, set up joint ventures in countries such as South Africa, Singapore, Thailand and Korea, and providing services to clients in Australia/New Zealand, South America, North America, the Middle East and U.K. regions.

The restructured business, which will continue to operate under their existing names, manages over 700,000 sea container movements annually around the globe as well as operating significant air freight services and pre-retail origin logistics.

Allport’s current Group managing director, Derek Davis, and deputy Group managing director, Danny Toye, are to move into non-executive roles, enabling Chris Cargill and Jerry Gray to take up the respective positions within the new arrangement.
