SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 23 June 2025 - Leading global logistics service provider the Rhenus Group announced its latest investment in the Southeast Asian market with the opening of a new airport gateway in Singapore, one of the region's most significant trade hubs.

The new facility, located at Changi Airport, offers a full range of cargo-handling services to support multi-modal shipments globally, including strong trans-pacific linkages from Asia onward to US & LATAM markets and cross-border connection with the Intra-Asia markets with immediate proximity to seaport as well.

With close to 500 sqm of warehousing space currently and plans to grow based on demand, the facility offers full door-to-door service with a fleet, in-house customs, a consolidation service for import and export handling, for guaranteed capacity and schedule reliability.

Some of the key highlights of the new facility are:

  • Guaranteed capacity with allotments and schedule reliability
