TNT Express opens fashion logistics hub in Hong Kong

The company sees Hong Kong as a highly efficient logistics centre and a global hub for trade in garments and luxury goods.

TNT Express on Tuesday announced the launching of a 99,087-square-foot distribution facility in Hong Kong to provide Asia-Pacific regional distribution and value-added logistics services to the fashion industry.

The TNT Asia-Pacific Fashion Hub is located at the ATL Logistics Centre in Hong Kong’s Kwai Chung Container Terminal and is an important development in TNT’s strategy to support the fashion and lifestyle sectors globally.

“Hong Kong is a highly efficient logistics centre and a global hub for trade in garments and luxury goods,” Edward Lau, Managing Director, TNT Express Hong Kong, said. “The city is not only a gateway to the fast-growing mainland China market, but is well connected to the entire region. That is why we are opening our new Asia-Pacific Fashion Hub here, and in turn the facility reinforces Hong Kong’s status as one of the world’s leading fashion hubs.”

The Asia-Pacific Fashion Hub offers complete, customised supply chain management solutions to fashion companies and is staffed by dedicated professionals who are specialists in fashion logistics. The facility will be the centre of a hub-and-spoke system that reaches countries including Japan, Korea, China and Singapore.

“The fashion industry is all about responding quickly to fast-changing, intensely competitive global and local marketplaces. Our clients must anticipate demand and constantly keep ahead of the curve,” Lau said. “For companies already operating in Asia and for those expanding into the region, TNT offers ‘just-in-time’ and ‘just-enough’ solutions that reduce supply chain costs and optimise inventory management.”

“Our experienced staff, proven technology and comprehensive end-to-end solutions bring not only speed and efficiency, but peace of mind to our clients in retail,” Lau said.

TNT’s Hong Kong fashion logistics centre is fully linked to the company’s industry-leading multimodal integrated air and road networks, ensuring a high degree of connectivity among major markets in Asia Pacific and Europe, thanks to 5-times-a-week dedicated freighter flights to its air hub in Liege.
