Gebrüder Weiss enhances presence in US with new Arizona facility

Gebrüder Weiss has announced the launch of a new facility in Phoenix, Arizona, as part of its ongoing expansion in the United States.

This location is expected to offer air and sea freight services, including customs clearance, as well as partial and full-load land transport solutions.

The company is strengthening its presence in North America, particularly to cater to the growing trade between the United States and Mexico. Arizona plays a key role in transportation to and from Mexico, with Phoenix emerging as a vital hub for cross-border trade in the southern US.

In 2023, trade between Arizona and Mexico reached nearly US$20 billion. The Phoenix facility complements Gebrüder Weiss’ existing operations in El Paso and Laredo, Texas, which are focussed on facilitating cross-border goods transport.

“Our logistics services in Phoenix are a further building block in the development of Gebrüder Weiss and strengthen our position in this economically strong region. This allows us to offer our customers greater flexibility in their transports and more reliable supply chains,” stated Mark McCullough, Country Manager of Gebrüder Weiss North America.

Gebrüder Weiss has steadily grown its North American footprint in recent years, now operating a network of 17 locations. Alongside the new Phoenix facility, the company recently opened a logistics terminal in Elgin, Illinois, and established branches in Miami, Florida; Denver, Colorado; and Dallas, Texas. In 2024, Gebrüder Weiss further expanded by acquiring the local freight forwarder Cargo-Link in Salt Lake City, Utah.
