Industry insiders believe that this entry will strengthen Guangzhou Port's ability to provide comprehensive logistics services for shippers and cargo parties, and promote the Nansha Port's shipping logistics hub service level.

Guangzhou United, established in 1997, is a professional logistics company jointly established by Guangzhou Port Logistics Co., Ltd. and COSCO Shipping Logistics Supply Chain Co., Ltd. In 2024, to give full play to the port and railway resource advantages of Guangzhou Port and the market and network advantages of COSCO Shipping Logistics, shareholders of both parties decided to reorganize Guangzhou United, update the management model and management team, focusing on Nansha and extending influence to South China, so as to create a professional and comprehensive team to further improve the service quality.

Since reorganized, Guangzhou United has business covering roll-roll, bulk and general cargo shipping agency, dry bulk cargo and containerized shipment, Haite-Nansha route booking operations, etc. From January to September 2024, its cumulative operating income has exceeded 100 million yuan. After the new office is opened, the company will rely on geographical advantages of Nansha and resource advantages of shareholders to continuously strengthen the cooperation among all parties and innovate services. In accordance with work arrangements of the board of directors, it will accelerate the pace of going global and accelerate its expansion to eastern Guangdong, western Guangdong, northern Guangdong and overseas layout, and build a more complete logistics network system to make the Company become a public service platform integrating “port + shipping + logistics”.

The address of Guangzhou United in Nansha is Room 1201, 35 Huangge Section, Fanzhong Highway, Nansha District, Guangzhou, which relies on the network node resources of COSCO Shipping and Guangzhou Port to better serve port-vicinity enterprises. (Text by Chen Wei, picture by Port Media)
