At Gateway Cargo, we know that great logistics is driven by people. That is why our Asia Trade Desk is staffed by professionals who have lived and worked across Asia before bringing their expertise back to the UK. They understand the culture, the markets, and the challenges first-hand – and that knowledge becomes your competitive edge.
Our team members have worked directly in China, Hong Kong and other key Asian markets. They know how suppliers operate, how local regulations are enforced, and how to navigate the unwritten rules that can make or break a shipment.
Fluent in Mandarin and Cantonese, our people ensure clear communication with factories, carriers, and authorities. They also know the subtleties of Asian business culture – meaning smoother negotiations and fewer misunderstandings.
Beyond language, they bring cultural sensitivity. From respecting holiday shutdowns to anticipating production delays, our team plans around the realities of Asian supply chains, not just what is written in a schedule.
Why it matters to you
When you work with Gateway Cargo’s Asia Trade Desk, you are not just hiring a logistics provider – you are gaining a partner with real, lived experience in Asia. That combination of global knowledge and local presence ensures your supply chain runs smoothly, every time.
