Making a Mark<br />

Yang Kee Logistics Pte Ltd envisions itself to be not just a service-provider of quality<br />

service, but as a long-term strategic partner with the most effective logistical solutions.<br />

the business of logistics is<br />

not easy: managing a supply<br />

chain to ensure that all<br />

deliverables are safely and<br />

punctually sent to the stated<br />

address can be a daunting task. From<br />

the storing of products in secured<br />

warehouses to the physical moving of<br />

the items over air, land and sea, multiple<br />

factors exist between the point of origin<br />

all the way to the eventual hands of<br />

the end-user. In the modern global<br />

marketplace where the onus is on speed<br />

and reliability, the blend of warehousing<br />

facilities, distribution/forwarding centers,<br />

logistical equipment and other elements<br />

must be in tandem, consistent and<br />

seamless.<br />

Yang Kee Logistics Pte Ltd was first<br />

established in 1990 as a transportation<br />

company. It had a humble beginning,<br />

starting out with only two trucks as it<br />

began to make its mark on the industry.<br />

Over time, Yang Kee slowly expanded<br />

its business to include warehousing in<br />

1993 and then to one-stop, customised<br />

supply-chain solutions in 1997. As<br />

business picked up, the company<br />

started to slowly expand, eventually<br />

culminating into a global operation<br />

with three main business verticals<br />

and a network of reliable supply-chain<br />

partners.<br />

Today, Yang Kee is one of Singapore’s<br />

top end-to-end logistics and<br />

warehousing companies with a<br />

200-strong team of dedicated staff<br />

equipped with in-depth expertise<br />

and experience in a broad range of<br />

industries.<br />

all-in-one logistical Solutions<br />

As a complete logistics solutions<br />

provider, Yang Kee’s expertise lies in<br />

third party logistics such as Warehousing<br />

& Inventory Management, Distribution,<br />

LCL & FCL Transportation & Cross<br />

Border Transportation, Project Logistics,<br />

Chemical Handling & Storage as well as<br />

International Freight Forwarding.<br />

operations on a<br />

global scale, Yang Kee exercises<br />

complete control over all aspects of the<br />

logistical supply chain, giving customers<br />

peace of mind and ensuring timely<br />

delivery. In addition to operations in<br />

key commercial centers, the company<br />

is part of an extensive global network<br />

that encompasses Asia, South East<br />

Asia, the Middle East, North America,<br />

Oceania as well as Europe, and has<br />

partnerships forged with reputable sea<br />

and air freight carriers. Yang Kee is also<br />

connected to the most critical supply<br />

chain infrastructure and this translates<br />

to faster turnaround time and higher<br />

cost effectiveness for their clients.<br />

approach to varying business needs,<br />

Yang Kee aids customers in designing<br />

a logistical package tailored specifically<br />

closely with their clients, Yang Kee<br />

leverages on its robust pool of<br />

knowledge and practicable expertise to<br />

come up with a truly effective solution<br />

that streamlines the supply chain<br />

operation while maximising business<br />

performance.<br />

Advancing with the times, Yang Kee<br />

invests in the latest technology for<br />

systems, equipment and facilities<br />

which help them bring even more value<br />

to their supply chain. An integrated<br />

E-Logistics System has helped to<br />

push the company’s efficiency by 25<br />

per cent, while the one-stop Chemical<br />

Logistics Hub at Jurong Pier Road is<br />

outfitted with state-of-the-art facilities<br />

and a robust IT infrastructure for better<br />

handling of in-house logistics as well as<br />

to provide tailor-made turnkey logistics<br />

solutions.<br />

specialised chemical storage capabilities<br />
