They will change their name from Imperial Logistics Switzerland GMBH to Central Station AG

Imperial Logistics Switzerland GMBH, Globalia member in Zurich, Switzerland, is going to be taken over by Central Station AG.

In the words of Rainer Muffler, the Head of Sales of Imperial Logistics Switzerland,”The biggest benefit of this merger is that we can run our business without any interruption. In addition, the recent acquisition will open new opportunities in several business fields. Within our new organization the most remarkable new service is the capability to offer 4PL Logistics”.

Imperial Logistics Switzerland GMBH will soon make available the changes in their contact details. Moreover, all old open files (opened until 31st October) will be handled by Imperial Logistics until 23rd of February. The staff of their company will also remain more or less the same.

“Initially we were taken over by DP World. However, DP world decided to move our European Headquarter to London and close down the Zurich office. As we wanted to keep our Zurich office, we decided to move to Central Station AG, that has been a highly valued partner for years. We came to this decision after short and intense negotiations”, adds Mr. Muffler.

Congratulations to Imperial Logistics Switzerland and all the best for their upcoming projects!

In the words of Devin Gunarathne, the Director of Cargo Overseas Freight, “Our company had a humble beginning with a small staff and big expectations. Since then, we have grown our staff as well as opened a new Airport office near the CMB airport to coordinate and handle our air imports/exports with a very close eye. As the director of the company, I personally feel we have taken steps to improve ourselves individually and collectively as a company to add value and give the utmost service to our customers.”

One of their spectacular achievements in the last 5 years is their increasing turnover and the improvements in their customer service. In the last financial year, they achieved an annual turnover of 2,300,000 USD. This turnover was the highest in the company’s history which was averaging a 192,000 USD monthly gross income as well.

“The most significant objective that we wanted to achieve was raising our turnover and uplifting our customer service within our business which we have achieved significantly by implementing new facilities and expanding our competitive advantages to execute new business ventures. The biggest challenge we were facing was the aftermath of the pandemic but now we are confronting a new challenge which is the economic crisis which our country is facing and the Forex exchange due to the depreciation of LKR. Nevertheless, I am confident that our team will successfully overcome these challenges. For the efforts and risks we have taken, rewards have been given and for that, I am significantly proud.”

Congratulations to Cargo Overseas Freight on their 5th Anniversary and the very best for their future endeavours!
