Werner Enterprises Launches Werner Global Logistics Australia Pty. Ltd

2009-11-16 17:56 ET - News Release


OMAHA, Neb. -- (Business Wire)

Werner Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: WERN) announced today that it has fully established its newest subsidiary, Werner Global Logistics Australia Pty. Ltd. The new subsidiary was formed in the third quarter of 2009 and expands the company’s global presence to Australia.

Werner Global Logistics Australia Pty. Ltd. extends the company’s logistics services to the domestic Australia market by offering freight forwarding, logistics, local transportation and distribution services. The primary Australian service areas include the most densely populated markets of Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

“Our financial strength and flexible IT platform allow us to expand quickly into markets where we recognize growth opportunities. Australia is a market that is relatively insulated from the global economic downturn and presents those opportunities,” said Craig Stoffel, vice president of Werner Global Logistics. “This will also position us to better serve our worldwide client base with their international and local needs.”
