FMC reviews 11 OTI license applications

Persons knowing of a reason why an applicant should not receive a license are asked to contact the Office of Transportation Intermediaries.    The U.S. Federal Maritime Commission has received 11 ocean transportation intermediary (OTI) license applications and changes for review.
   The FMC received a non-vessel-operating common carrier license application from Universal Way International, Cerritos, Calif. (Soo H. Kim, CEO).
   The agency also received NVO/ocean freight forwarder license applications from Ahead & Beyond Logis, Fullerton, Calif. (Kwan Sik Yoon, secretary); Anndex International Courier Service Corp., Miami (Claudine Dominique, vice president); Peace Global Logistics, Savannah, Ga. (Irma H. Glass, manager); and Swift Cargo, Anaheim, Calif. (Jayant S. Bharadwaj, president).
   In addition, the FMC received license applications for changes to qualifying individuals from Alba Wheels Up International, Valley Stream, N.Y. (Salvatore J. Stile II, president); De Well Container Shipping Corp., Rosedale, N.Y.; and Mark and Shaunel Brown Corp., Portland, Ore. (Serena Schacht, vice president); for a business structure change to Exfreight Zeta LLC from Exfreight Zeta Inc., Lake Worth, Fla. (Jaclyn Regoli, vice president of operations); and for the addition of trade names Eshon International from 3M Logistics, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Xiucong Yang, president); and BSL Networks Logistics and Global Cargo Solutions from Y5 Solutions, Harbor City, Calif. (Shan “Anderson” I. Chiu, chief financial officer).
   Persons knowing of any reason why an applicant should not receive an OTI license or amendment are urged to contact the FMC’s Office of Transportation Intermediaries in Washington, D.C. Lists of licensed OTIs (applications approved, bonds in place and fully licensed) — both ocean freight forwarders and NVOs — also are available on the FMC website.
