Eurofreight Logistics Ltd (Cyprus) and UPS Supply Chain Solutions have signed an exclusive authorised service contractor agreement to represent Eurofreight Logistics in 150 countries while Eurofreight Logistics will represent UPS Supply Chain Solutions in Cyprus.

This agreement enables Cypriot customers to source their heavyweight products from, or send their products to some 150 countries around the world using the UPS network. Customers are able to track all freight movements online with the UPS Supply Chain Solutions Flex Global View visibility tool.

Local Eurofreight Logistics Ltd services include customs clearance and Intrastat, warehousing, project management, local transport, fairs and exhibitions and insurance.

Customers are already leveraging joint capabilities as Eurofreight Logistics breaks down imported consolidated shipments and stores the goods in modern warehouses awaiting customer pickup or immediately redistributes within Cyprus and the Middle East.

Stuart Richardson of UPS Supply Chain Solutions said: “I believe that our relationship with Eurofreight Logistics will prove highly beneficial to importers and exporters in Cyprus as it combines the local expertise of Eurofreight Logistics with the strength of UPS’s integrated global transportation network. Our network is backed by superior technology, reliable shipping systems and an experienced workforce. As a result, Cypriot customers enjoy unmatched reliability and access to global markets. Both Companies have a passion for quality of service and a commitment to provide solutions to match their customers’ needs.
