Singapore,November 14, 2024:

Sterling, part of Kuehne+Nagel and a leader in global aviation logistics, has announced plans to open a third global control tower focused on urgent Aircraft-on-Ground (AOG) logistics services.

Located in Singapore, the new APAC team will join those at existing control towers in London and Washington D.C. This will give aviation companies round-the-clock access to Sterling’s seasoned logistics experts in some of the world’s most critical markets. “We’re continually investing in our global network, which includes enhancing our teams and infrastructure in APAC,” says Rob Broderick, Executive Vice President for Sterling. “Our newest control tower will allow us to combine available resources from around the world to deliver the mission-critical results our customers expect.”

As with the London and D.C. locations, the Singapore control tower will offer 24/7 priority pickup and delivery, optimized route planning that leverages a range of air and ground transportation options and a secure chain of custody, among other services. To support its growth and further meet the diverse needs of the industry, Sterling is also forming several strategic partnerships – both throughout the region and worldwide.

“Given Singapore’s importance as a key aviation hub in APAC, this expansion solidifies Sterling’s commitment to ensuring customer needs are always met, even in the most complex and demanding AOG situations.” Saurabh Doshi, Vice President for Sterling in APAC.
