As one of the very few Asia-based global 3PL with a diversified business mix and broad exposure in key gateways, we are offering unique and highly customised solutions to support our customers to, from and within Asia. We are proud of what we have accomplished especially during the last two years when our team showed incredible dedication, ingenuity and agility in the face of COVID."

On his personal recognition, Ma added, "I am truly honoured to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. It would not be possible without the great support of all my colleagues and partners from across our network. Despite the success of building Kerry Logistics Network as a global and sustainable corporation, I will continue to inspire and nurture our people as well as explore new solutions for our customers. Together with my management team, I look forward to taking KLN to the next level in the global logistics arena."
