Kintetsu World Express (Malaysia) has announced that it opened a new warehouse in the Free Commercial Zone (FCZ) of Penang Airport, Malaysia on February 1, 2021. This is following a new warehouse which opened 3 km from Shanghai Pudong Airport in August 2020.
Penang is a focus for investment by foreign-based corporations in Malaysia and is known as a centre for electronics and medical equipment manufacturers. The area is anticipated to continue growing in the future. The warehouse is 9,234 m sq and offers storage, air import-export loading and unloading, distribution processing. It is located inside Penang Airport FCZ, within one hour by truck from surrounding major industrial parks with many corporate occupants.
As a warehouse for non-residents, KWE Malaysia can store and manage products and materials for corporations without a physical presence in Malaysia and provides high-quality service for customers with VMI and JIT delivery needs. Part of the warehouse area is temperature-controlled, suitable for handling precision electronic equipment, medical equipment, and other freight requiring specific temperature and humidity levels.
KWE Malaysia runs a truck shuttle between Penang and Kuala Lumpur, providing gateway service leveraging the advantages of both locations, and is also expanding transhipment to third countries via Malaysia.
