Awards Shipping Agency Ltd.
Awards
Shipping aims for the high spots BACK in
February 1990, two young men named Simon
Dun and Ferrari Wong opened a new shipping
agency in 350 square feet of office space.
They
had little to help them other than several
years' experience in freight forwarding
and their enthusiasm. In particular, they
had no staff but what they did have was
a burning desire to succeed and an ambition
to stand out in the fiercely competitive
forwarding world as a name that customers
could trust. So, with a flash of glamour,
they named the company Awards Shipping
But
even this milestone looks modest in comparison
to the network of Awards Shipping offices
steadily opening across Asia. The company
now has offices in Indonesia, Malaysia,
Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand
and Vietnam.
In an effort to meet
the fast changing environment of the Hong
Kong market place, in addition, in order
to cope with great expansion in China, the
company has made restructure and adopted
a new company name as "Awards Shipping
Agency Ltd" since 01 April 2001. Now,
Awards Shipping is having ten offices in
Dongguan, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Huizhou, Jiangmen,
Ningbo, Shanghai, Shantou, Shenzhen and
Xiamen. The company has also been busy expanding
its system of agents in Africa, Australia,
Canada, Central & South America, Europe,
Indian Sub-Continent, Mediterranean, Middle
East, New Zealand and USA, aiming to build
a global network.
