SINGAPORE, Aug. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In honour of Singapore's National Day, SSI Schaefer, a global leader in intralogistics and automated warehouse solutions, is celebrating the success of its numerous Singaporean partners over the years, as the company itself commemorates its 40th anniversary in APAC.

The World Bank recently ranked Singapore as first globally in its most recent 2023 Logistics Performance Index, with its highest score for Infrastructure, and had previously noted that the nation's position as a global logistics hub played a key role in its economic success. Underpinning Singapore's logistics infrastructure across sectors are intralogistics centres — storage and distribution facilities — whose performance and capacity have repercussions for global supply chains, international trade, and economic growth.

"Having been here for 40 of its 59 years, Singapore is home to SSI Schaefer's headquarters for Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, overseeing 15 locations across these regions as well as a factory in Simpang Renggam, Malaysia. During our time here, it's been spectacular to witness Singapore's meteoric rise as a major global supply-chain hub," remarked Sean Lim, Country Head at SSI Schaefer Singapore. "The nation has done particularly well by prioritizing infrastructure and recognizing that cutting-edge technology, top performance, optimal efficiency, and rigorous safety are absolute necessities for world-class facilities. It's been an honour to be a part of this for four decades through both our domestic and international partners."

Specific to homegrown companies, three partnerships provide a snapshot of the company's impact on the Singaporean economy.

Collaboration with SME in Automotive and Industrial Industries

Overview:

Singapore's rigorous safety standards as a global logistics hub can sometimes create challenges for companies with less experience and thorough planning, particularly SMEs. As a one-stop shop, SSI Schaefer follows exacting safety standards from the EU and Singapore's Building and Construction Authority (BCA) from the start, and it has guided several Singaporean SMEs to make facility approval processes seamless.

Most recently, SSI Schaefer implemented their mezzanine solution, which complies with BCA and EU structural safety standards, for a collaboration with an automotive and industrial supply company on their facility in Defu. With the solution, the company greatly scaled up their total floor area and maximised storage capacity while advancing their journey towards automation. For their warehouse workers, the mezzanine solutions made workflows significantly more streamlined and user-friendly.
