Multipurpose operator AAL Shipping is expanding its presence in Taiwan with the appointment Taiwan Wallem Transportation as its exclusive commercial and port agency representative in the country.
Christophe Grammare, AAL’s managing director, said: “Taiwan is an important market within Asia and to our operations with strong exports of steel, yachts and engineered industrial project components to key trading partners like Australia, US, and Europe – all markets which we serve with regular services. We have had a solid local presence there for two decades, serving the local multipurpose cargo shipping community with a wide range of flexible ocean transportation solutions. These include scheduled liner operations, regular trade lane sailings and tramp services that connect the region with its trading partners.”
He added: “Wallem has already proved itself to be a reliable partner for AAL and has a strong reputation with, and knowledge of, the local Taiwanese shipping community as well as the breakbulk and heavy lift market in Taiwan and our ambitions to comprehensively grow this market are very much aligned.”
In addition to Taiwan, Wallem Group is the exclusive agency representative for AAL in South Korea.
