by Paul Hong, Mark Vonderembse
International Journal of Logistics Systems and Management (IJLSM), Vol. 9, No. 2, 2011

Abstract: As global trade expands, the need to move supplies, parts, components, sub-assemblies and products increases at a rapid pace; and the need to have immediate, accurate, and secure information about the content of each shipment and its arrival time becomes vital. For firms facing these dynamic markets, global supply chains and distribution channels that require global logistic platforms are essential for success. This paper features an interview with the chief executive officer and other members of the senior management team at Korea Express (KX) which is one of largest global logistics firms in Asia. KX is recreating itself to respond to these emerging trends in global logistics by effectively serving not only national and regional markets including China and Japan but by serving international markets. Senior executives discuss key aspects of the global logistics strategies and their experiences at KX.
