Kerry Logistics Network wins ‘Cross-border Corporate - Leadership Award’ at the Standard Chartered Corporate Achievement Awards

Oct 22, 2024

Kerry Logistics Network Limited (‘Kerry Logistics Network’, ‘KLN’; Stock Code 0636.HK) has received the Cross-border Corporate - Leadership Award at the Standard Chartered Corporate Achievement Awards (the ‘Awards’) for the second year in a row for its outstanding business performance.

KLN was recognized for its far-reaching global network that spans 60 countries and territories, its resilience and responsiveness in adapting to the changing global logistics environment, as well as its forward-looking strategies that aim to propel the industry into the future. In 2024, when regular sea shipments were subject to prolonged disruptions, KLN made use of its comprehensive Eurasian land freight capabilities and global connectivity to provide innovative freight solutions connecting Asia and Europe. It also boosted its international freight forwarding capabilities worldwide by acquiring a majority stake in Business By Air SAS, a leading French international freight forwarding company serving diverse industrial clients.

Vic Cheung, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of Kerry Logistics Network, said, “We are delighted to receive the accolade for the second consecutive year, which is a testament to KLN’s global presence and the role it plays in cross-border trade. During a time when the global logistics market is highly volatile, KLN has been able to ride the waves by leveraging its resilience and agility, providing flexible and cost-effective solutions to its customers. Moving forward, we will continue to expand our geographical coverage to capture more opportunities arising from the shifts in the supply chain, while remaining committed to service excellence, putting our customers first.”

Organized annually by Standard Chartered and co-organized by the Hong Kong Economic Journal, the Awards recognise companies for their achievements in cross-border business, sustainable development, innovative business, and digital transformation.
