UPM Communication Papers is expanding its logistics presence in the U.S.
Starting next year, UPM, part of a Finnish forestry products company, will continue its long-term freight agreement with Dutch shipping company Spliethoff with regular shipments from Europe to Jacksonville, FL. A new port contract with Enstructure, effective this autumn, will enable deliveries to Port Wilmington.
"These agreements reflect our strong commitment to the North American market and reinforce our promise to deliver reliable and efficient service to our customers across the region," says Gunnar Eberhardt, executive vice president, UPM Communication Papers.
For over 25 years, Spliethoff has transported a broad range of UPM business area offerings - including products from UPM Communication Papers, Specialty Papers, Plywood, and Fibres - from Europe to global markets. As in previous years, the majority of shipments to the U.S. are represented by UPM Communication Papers and UPM Specialty Papers.
UPM has signed a new port operations contract with Enstructure, a partner at the Talleyrand Marine Terminal in Jacksonville and will now extend its services to Port Wilmington, Delaware.
Co-CEOs Matthew Satnick and Philippe De Montigny shared: “Enstructure is proud to expand our relationship with UPM into Port Wilmington. UPM has been a trusted partner in Jacksonville for many years, and we appreciate the confidence in our operations. Extending our partnership across our marine terminal network will create meaningful benefits for both organizations.”
Enstructure is a U.S.-based logistics and infrastructure company specializing in marine terminals and integrated supply chain solutions.
UPM operates globally and employs approximately 15,800 people worldwide
