With increasing globalisation and the re-location of production units of customer Leschaco oriented itself towards Asia in the late 1980s. In the first few years the group of companies cooperated with the company Birkart in doing this. In 1992 Leschaco decided to become independent and established its own subsidiary in Singapore: The Leschaco Pte Ltd.

At that time, a gas tank container business, which was managed by Leschaco Singapore in close cooperation with the tank container department at the Leschaco Headquarters in Bremen for one of the main customers in the chemical industry.

From 1993 to 1996 Leschaco Pte Ltd, together with a joint venture partner, operated a special warehouse for chemical products, in which temperature-controlled goods could be stored.

Over the years, Leschaco Singapore expanded its activities steadily. The company is active in all product areas of the Leschaco Group and has a staff of 45 members. Leschaco Singapore set up individual logistics solutions, considering specific customer requirements for the logistical planning, storage and distribution, handling of dangerous goods, and shipping. Tank container operations, the storage and transport of dangerous goods, cross-border transports to Malaysia and Thailand as well as customs clearing and documentation management are the daily business.

Leschaco Singapore has for some years now also been the location of “the extended arm” of the Tokyo-based Leschaco Tank Container Competence Center, which is responsible for the APAC region. Furthermore, the company operates domestic SILO container transports for granulate and powder products and manages a Regional Distribution Center for several customers.

In his speech, Jörg took a look into the future, too. He underlined the strengths of Leschaco Singapore and focused on the growth prospects of the Singaporean economy.
