K+N EXPANDS NETWORK IN CENTRAL ASIA AND THE CAUCASUS

Kuehne + Nagel has strengthened its logistics network in Central Asia and the Caucasus region with the opening of legal entities and new offices in Baku and Almaty.

 

According to Kuehne + Nagel, the new offices will primarily focus on demand from the consumer goods and oil and gas industries in Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, two emerging countries that show annual GDP growth rates of around 4%.

 

“By continually expanding our logistics network we offer throughout the entire region an integrated service portfolio according to our highest quality standards to both local and international customers from all major industries,” said Perry Neumann, president of the Russia and CIS cluster and general director of Kuehne + Nagel LLC. “Particularly in Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, our proven expertise in oil and gas and project logistics and our strong global network are best suited to meet the soaring market demand and provide comprehensive state-of-the-art solutions.”
