L-Acoustics, GEODIS open regional distribution centre in Singapore
This distribution centre is the first for L-Acoustics in the Asia Pacific region.
GEODIS, a leading global logistics provider, and L-Acoustics a renowned professional sound company have opened their new regional distribution centre in Singapore. This distribution centre is the first for L-Acoustics in the Asia Pacific region.
“Our mission is to strengthen our ties with clients, creating a hub from which we can provide ideal support,” says Tim Zhou, CEO of APAC at L-Acoustics. “The new warehouse will enable elevated customer service and faster delivery for their important projects.”
All L-Acoustics solutions are manufactured in Europe. Before the opening of the Singapore distribution centre, orders for customers in the Asia Pacific region were fulfilled from France. With the opening of the Singapore distribution centre, the company can now better support clients throughout the region, shortening delivery times and streamlining the supply chain, according to the official release.
L-Acoustics and GEODIS have been partners since 2018 when GEODIS began handling the distribution of L-Acoustics' products in France and Europe, with GEODIS providing L-Acoustics with global end-to-end logistics solutions covering freight, and customs and trade compliance management.
“Today marks a pivotal moment for L-Acoustics as we expand our regional logistics hub network with the help of our partner GEODIS, aiming to bring our customers the same level of service worldwide,” says Hervé Guillaume, CEO at L-Acoustics Group. “The foundation of our relationship with GEODIS is built on a shared spirit of innovation and performance, and a people-first mindset. Together, we champion hyper-care for our partners throughout all our operations.”
The decision to partner with GEODIS for the new distribution centre in Singapore was due to GEODIS's expertise in supply chain management and their success in setting up bonded warehouses. The Singapore distribution centre is a bonded, zero-GST (Goods and Services Tax) facility with licensed storage, strong security, skilled personnel, and operations aligned with local customs regulations, the release added.
“This recognition of our shared values reaffirms that our commitment to excellence and care is valued by our partners,” states Onno Boots, President and CEO of Asia Pacific and Middle East, GEODIS, “It is a testament to the strong relationships we have built, the service we provide, and the trust we’ve earned. Together, we will continue to raise the bar of excellence and support L-Acoustics in their growth.”
