Nippon Express Singapore, a subsidiary of Nippon Express Holdings, has completed a significant expansion of its Tuas Global Logistics Centre on Singapore’s western seafront. The expansion, marked by a ceremony on 21 November, adds 9,200 square metres of warehouse space to support growing demand from the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ).
The Tuas Global Logistics Centre’s strategic location near the new Tuas Port and major expressways enhances its accessibility, making it a pivotal hub for logistics operations. The proximity to the southern Malaysian state of Johor, where the JS-SEZ is fostering development, positions the centre as a key player in regional economic growth.
The expansion is designed with a flexible layout to accommodate fluctuating demand, ensuring the facility can adapt to market changes. This development aligns with Singapore’s broader Tuas Mega Port Project, which aims to consolidate port functions and establish a world-class container handling facility by 2040.
Nippon Express Singapore’s investment in the Tuas facility underscores its commitment to supporting regional logistics and supply chain needs. The enhanced infrastructure is expected to bolster the company’s ability to serve businesses operating within the JS-SEZ, further integrating the logistics network between Singapore and Malaysia.
As the Tuas Mega Port Project progresses, the expanded logistics centre is poised to play a crucial role in facilitating efficient trade and transport in the region, contributing to Singapore’s status as a global logistics hub.
