The establishment of ISS Global Forwarding is the result of a strategic directive by the Government of Dubai to separate Inchcape Shipping Services Holding into two stand-alone companies with the aim of optimising the growth potential, customer focus and core competencies of each, namely marine services and supply chain logistics.
Headquartered in Dubai and operating out of the Dubai Airport Free Zone, strategically located in the heart of Dubai adjacent to Dubai airport, ISS Global Forwarding will focus on core activities of Global Freight Forwarding, Contract Logistics and Projects / Oil and Gas.
ISS Global Forwarding will initially be present in 18 countries across the Middle East, Africa, Europe, India and Turkey. As part of its ambitious growth strategy, the company will expand its footprint to Asia Pacific, mainland China and Singapore. In addition, ISS Global Forwarding benefits from a global network thanks to partnerships with gworldwide operators, thereby providing its customers with multimodal, end-to-end supply chain solutions.
ISS Global Forwarding will be led by industry veteran Enver Moretti and a highly experienced senior management team. "We are establishing ourselves as a regional powerhouse and our aspiration is to be recognised within the supply chain logistics industry as a customer-centric organisation" explained Moretti.
