The Dubai office will be managed by Paula Bellamy, who previously headed Allseas Global Logistics in Dubai and Ocean World Lines’ U.K. offices.
OL, a Westbury, N.Y.-based non-vessel-operating common carrier, said it now operates 18 offices and works with more than 120 agents worldwide.
“The launch of the office is the next step in OL International’s global expansion and a sign of confidence in Dubai’s present and future in the shipping industry as a core hub for the Middle East,” said Alan Baer, president of OL International, in a statement. “We have seen Dubai rise in prominence as shippers hold cargo in the free zone and then dispatch it on a just-in-time basis.”
