Our Global NetworkHong Kong

Agility designed a customized contract logistics solution – and established a regional hub in Hong Kong – to serve global markets for one of the world’s largest data storage device manufacturers. Agility provided on-time delivery of airfreight shipments and product customization. We handled distribution including airfreight, ocean freight and over-land truck delivery services. We also managed raw materials coming from overseas to China, and provided a one-step logistics solution that allowed our customer to monitor its entire supply chain. We processed more than 3,000 pallet positions in ambient condition, 12,000 outbound orders with picking quantity of over 15M HDD annually and more than 1,100 SKUs in stock.

A global Fortune 500 contract manufacturer wanted to speed up replenishment of its factories. Agility developed a sophisticated just-in-time delivery system and a Global Component Service Center in Hong Kong to meet that need. Efficient customs clearance ensured that components could be sent to factories on the same day orders were received. WMS enhancement captured more than 10 types of information for each item, allowing accuracy for processing by FEFO (First Expiry First Out), which the client required. The 10,000 sq foot, temperature-controlled service center handled more than 40,000 LPN, including In and Out, per month; more than 500 delivery notes, and around 2,300 active SKUs. These comprise 202 suppliers and 103 consignees in 19 countries.

The Hong Kong Design Center is a government-funded nonprofit organization celebrating design excellence. It hosted the exhibition series Confluence • 20+, which honors Hong Kong’s design heritage roots. The cargo was on display in Milan and rushed to Hong Kong, where it would be on exhibition for three weeks at the Hong Kong City Hall. This structure was built in 1962 and is listed as a Grade I historic building. No cargo lift was available to the exhibition hall, so Agility Fairs & Events developed a plan to transport the items safely. Our expert art handlers uncrated and unpacked them on the ground floor and carried them up a tiny passenger lift to the exhibition hall. Bulky pieces had to be navigated carefully up a steep, narrow staircase. Because of Agility’s comprehensive planning, all cargo was delivered on time and positioned for display within two hours.
