The new office now offers air and ocean freight services with access to the CEVA network using the company’s global One Freight System.

 

“Myanmar is a country with real opportunities for growth,” said Bruno Plantaz, managing director of the Mekong cluster at CEVA. “It has a population of some 55 million people who are looking to companies like CEVA to provide supply chain services to support their developing business and meet their requirements. In the past, the country infrastructure has always been a limiting and inhibiting factor but with our global network and more importantly, our experience in emerging markets, especially in the region, we are confident that with our own office and robust IT offerings we can deliver options and solutions to the market and at the same time grow our commercial footprint.”

According to CEVA, imports into Myanmar mainly include industrial materials for infrastructure, consumer goods and machinery, while exports consist of commodities, agricultural products and goods for the retail sector.

 

CEVA has been operational in the country for the past five years through a network partner, providing freight management services to a number of multinational and local customers.
