PSA BDP, a leading provider of globally integrated and port-centric supply chain, transportation, and logistics solutions, has opened its first office in Poland, located in Gdańsk, a port city on the Baltic coast. The office is strategically positioned to connect key central European transportation hubs, offering services such as ocean freight forwarding, customs brokerage, pre-& on-carriage services, and warehouse distribution. Gdasńk, one of Europe’s 15 largest ports and the only Baltic port that supports direct container connections with China, is expected to develop rapidly into a strategic logistics epicentre. BDP was merged into the French PSA Group this year, and PSA acquired 100% of the shares of the Deepwater Container Terminal ‘DCT Gdańsk’ in 2019.
PSA Group CEO Tan Chong Meng said: “DCT Gdańsk is PSA’s first investment in Eastern Europe, and we look forward to working closely with our partners PFR and IFM to further develop its facilities and to strengthen its position as the preferred port of call for Poland and the Baltic Sea. Through leveraging our global network and our expertise in creating value for the port and shipping communities, PSA will partner with shipping lines, logistics operators and cargo owners to deliver more efficient, flexible and robust supply chain solutions for the region.”
