St. Gallen, May 28, 2024: Logistics company Militzer & Münch continues its strategic growth in Asia and Oceania. Since March 2024, Militzer & Münch has been a shareholder of an international logistics service provider in Indonesia. The company began operating under the name PT. Militzer and Muench Indonesia on May 1, 2024.
Prior to becoming M&M Indonesia, the existing entity was affiliated with a well-established logistics group operating as its branch office in Indonesia since 2005. The new PT. Militzer and Muench Indonesia now operates with a highly dedicated team of 72 full-time employees and 20 outsourced personnel from its head office in Jakarta, which includes a 6000 sqm warehouse capacity. Additionally, the company manages an operations office at Jakarta International Airport (CGK) with a bonded warehouse (TPS), and branch offices in Surabaya and Balikpapan, East Kalimantan.
“The M&M team in Indonesia is well-versed in both local and global markets with a large customer base. Since its inception in 2005, the team has consistently reported positive growth and results,” says Andreas Löwenstein, Regional Managing Director Asia / Far East at Militzer & Münch. “By integrating this team, which is firmly anchored in the dynamic Indonesian market, we expect significant positive effects for the Militzer & Münch Group.”
PT.
