Gebrüder Weiss Expands in Arizona
The global transport and logistics company Gebrüder Weiss has announced the opening of a new location in Phoenix, Arizona, as part of its continued growth in the United States. This new facility will provide air and sea freight transport services including customs clearance and partial and full-load land transport.
The logistics company continues to expand its activities in North America, in particular to meet the demand for trade between the US and Mexico. Arizona is the most important state for transport to and from Mexico, while Phoenix itself is becoming increasingly important as a central transhipment point for trade across the southern border of the US. In 2023, nearly 20 billion USD worth of cargo moved between Arizona and Mexico. Phoenix complements Gebrüder Weiss’ existing Texas locations in El Paso and Laredo, which specialize in the cross-border transport of goods to and from Mexico.
“Our logistics services in Phoenix are a further building block in the development of Gebrüder Weiss and strengthen our position in this economically strong region. This allows us to offer our customers greater flexibility in their transports and more reliable supply chains,” says Mark McCullough, Country Manager of Gebrüder Weiss North America.
Gebrüder Weiss has continuously expanded its presence in North America in recent years and now operates a network of 17 locations. In addition to Phoenix, the company recently opened a logistics terminal in Elgin, Illinois, as well as branches in Miami, Florida, Denver, Colorado and Dallas, Texas. In Salt Lake City, the company acquired the local freight forwarder Cargo-Link in 2024.
