Gebrüder Weiss is further expanding its presence in the United States, with the opening of an air and sea freight office in Miami.

"Miami is a central logistics hub for transports to and from Latin America, Europe, Asia and the Caribbean," said Mark McCullough, country manager USA at Gebrüder Weiss, noting that Miami, in Florida, primarily handles imports from Asia for onward transport to South and Central America, as there are only a few direct routes from Asia.

Gebrüder Weiss noted that the new location is situated in the immediate vicinity of the international airport, one of the country's busiest cargo-handling facilities.

The Miami office is headed by Marcin Gonzalez — and the company said the location is set to keep growing and become a gateway for transport to the Latin American markets.

Since the country organization was founded in 2017, Gebrüder Weiss has continuously expanded its network of locations and services in the US.

Today, in addition to air and sea freight services, the logistics provider also offers its customers national and international full-load services, heavy transports and specific logistics solutions, with the portfolio ranging from goods warehousing and local distribution to e-commerce solutions.

"Gebrüder Weiss has firmly established its brand and services in the market over the past five years. Our customers benefit from a globally integrated network with a high level of local expertise," McCullough said.

Only recently, the company moved into a larger head office in Chicago and opened another logistics warehouse.

Gebrüder Weiss operates a total of five warehouse locations in the USA and employs 130 people in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, El Paso, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco – and now also in Miami.
