SEKO Logistics expands Ocean Freight network with new LCL services connecting Asia with Greece and the Balkans.

SEKO Logistics expands Ocean Freight network with new LCL services connecting Asia with Greece and the Balkans. 31 July 2026 SINGAPORE - July 30, 2026 - SEKO Logistics (SEKO), a leader in end-to-end global logistics, is expanding its international ocean freight forwarding capabilities with the launch of a new Less-than-Container Load (LCL) consolidation service connecting major sourcing markets across Asia with Greece, Cyprus, and the wider Balkan region. Developed in strategic partnership with Go Shipping - SEKO's exclusive regional partner in Greece - the service offers direct weekly LCL services from China, while cargo from other key Asian sourcing markets is consolidated through SEKO's regional hub in Singapore before sailing to Greece. The new route addresses growing demand among regional and global shippers for flexible, part-load ocean solutions that avoid the cost and volume commitments of full container loads (FCL), while maintaining high reliability and end-to-end visibility. "Greece, Cyprus and the Balkan region have traditionally been challenging markets for LCL shipments, often requiring multiple service providers and fragmented logistics solutions. By combining our direct services from China, our regional consolidation hub in Singapore and Go Shipping's strong local expertise, we've created a single, integrated solution that gives customers reliable access to the region through one point of contact," said Fabiano Duarte, Vice President, Ocean Freight at SEKO APAC. Connecting broader Asia to southern europe. The service combines direct LCL services from China with SEKO's regional consolidation hub in Singapore, extending origin coverage across Southeast Asia, Oceania and the Indian Subcontinent through a structured origin-to-destination network. * Regional Consolidation Hub: Cargo from Southeast Asia, Oceania and the Indian Subcontinent is consolidated through SEKO's Singapore gateway, maximizing space utilization and rate efficiency before weekly sailings to Greece. * Weekly Fixed Sailings: Scheduled departures from Singapore to Piraeus support predictable inventory planning and replenishment cycles for importers. * Specialized Cargo Handling: The LCL service supports a broad range of IMO dangerous goods, excluding Class 1 and Class 7. * Destination Access Across Cyprus and the Balkans: Upon arrival in Piraeus, Go Shipping coordinates destination handling, customs support, and onward distribution throughout Greece, Cyprus and the wider Balkan region. End-to-End visibility and control. Shippers utilizing the new Asia-Greece & Balkans LCL service gain full operational visibility from origin pickup to final-mile delivery through SEKO's proprietary MySEKO customer portal. The unified technology platform enables real-time shipment tracking, purchase order management, and live document uploads, simplifying administrative coordination across international borders.

SEKO Logistics compounds U.S. Growth, adding capacity across the Midwest and Texas.

SEKO Logistics compounds U.S. Growth, adding capacity across the Midwest and Texas. SCHAUMBURG, Ill.-(BUSINESS WIRE)-SEKO Logistics (SEKO), the leader in end-to-end global logistics, is building on a sustained run of U.S. network investment with new and expanded facilities across the Midwest and Texas. The continued buildout deepens capacity across the network's core services - expedited ground solutions, international freight forwarding, white glove last mile delivery, contract logistics and customs brokerage - in markets where customer demand is concentrating, strengthening SEKO's ability to serve each region while extending the reach of its national and global accounts. The additions build on a U.S. footprint that now spans 64 locations, the largest and most expansive freight forwarding and 3PL network in the country. "It's been a volatile stretch for logistics in the U.S., and it won't get simpler anytime soon. However, with disruption comes opportunity, which is why we're investing through it," said Gordon Branov, CEO at SEKO. "Customers need capacity where their freight moves, and a partner that's adding room to grow, not pulling back. That's what this buildout delivers." Midwest: Deepening a strategic cornerstone The Midwest is an integral part of SEKO's U.S. network - and a growing gateway to its global one. Anchored by SEKO's U.S. headquarters in Schaumburg and an international gateway near O'Hare International Airport (ORD), the company's Chicagoland corridor combines regional warehousing, cross-border, last mile and international freight forwarding in a single high-performance hub. SEKO continues to expand that footprint to serve local shippers in these markets while connecting them to its national and global accounts. "North America is central to how SEKO serves customers around the world, and a stronger U.S. operation makes the entire network more capable," said Ian Oliver, President, North America Operations at SEKO. "With these investments, SEKO is better positioned to serve its local, national and global customers alike - delivering the reliability and service they expect from a global logistics partner as their supply chains evolve." Elmhurst, Illinois. SEKO's 83,000-square-foot Elmhurst facility is the single centralized fashion hub for the Midwest, serving direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands looking for a single node that processes both outbound and returns with garment-on-hanger capabilities. Mount Prospect, Illinois. This facility adds domestic and international capacity near ORD, with cross-dock and warehousing operations and more than 44,000 square feet of warehouse capacity. The building also houses SEKO's TSA-regulated air cargo screening operation. Designed to give the network more room for warehousing, consolidation and dedicated client lanes, Mount Prospect is positioned to support a growing domestic and international freight forwarding operation for Chicago. Elk Grove Village, Illinois. SEKO Elk Grove Village, a 103,000-square-foot facility just minutes from ORD, serves as the Midwest and centralized U.S. hub for DTC brands looking for a single node with easy access to carrier networks from Chicago. Cincinnati, Ohio. SEKO Cincinnati extends its reach into one of the nation's most efficient distribution markets - within a one-day drive of the majority of the U.S. population - and offers multimodal connectivity via highway, rail, the Ohio River and global air cargo through Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG). The 350,000-square-foot facility offers full air, ocean, ground and customs brokerage services alongside white glove handling, with expertise in high tech, medical and aerospace logistics. Texas and the Southwest: New gateways for domestic and international freight SEKO is expanding its network into two strategically positioned markets in Texas, a state that has ranked as the nation's top exporter for 24 consecutive years, shipping a wide range of goods from energy products to electronics. These facilities enhance capacity for international gateway operations, white glove services and specialized, time-critical freight across two of the country's most active trade corridors. Houston, Texas. SEKO's new Houston footprint includes a 35,000-square-foot built-to-scale facility positioned near George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), a critical gateway for both international trade and domestic distribution across the greater Houston market - the fourth most populous U.S. city, anchoring a metropolitan area larger than several U.S. states and home to the Port of Houston, the largest port in the country. The station offers full domestic and international operations with comprehensive IAH coverage, local cartage and white glove solutions for high-value and specialized freight. El Paso, Texas. SEKO El Paso is a 24,000-square-foot strategic hub for regional distribution and specialized logistics, serving a 200-mile radius across West Texas and southern New Mexico - including mission-critical and government-adjacent corridors anchored by Fort Bliss, Holloman Air Force Base and White Sands Missile Range. Positioned on the I-10 corridor at one of the busiest U.S.-Mexico land-trade gateways, the station specializes in white glove service, local cartage, last mile and inside delivery, and the handling of sensitive, high-value and time-critical freight, with on-site coordination alongside installation and project crews and flexible scheduling for expedited shipments.
