As part of our commitment to being a global integrator of logistics, A.P. Moller – Maersk opened a new warehouse in Cajamar in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil, in September 2022. This new facility is part of Maersk’s transformation journey in Latin America, connecting and simplifying our customers’ supply chains to help them grow and thrive. We started this journey in 2017 with various organisational actions such as incorporating depots into our portfolio to improve our regional footprint.
By the end of this year, we will have a 350,000-square-metre warehouse footprint in Latin America situated in country locations throughout the region, and we have a great ambition for the years to come. As we combine these strategically located warehouses and a broad portfolio of services, we aim to offer more value-added, agile solutions to our customers.
Maersk aims to better connect Latin America with the world by expanding its end-to-end warehouse and distribution footprint and regional consolidation/deconsolidation network with innovative solutions that address our customers’ needs.
This new facility adds to our six existing facilities in Brazil and is part of the plans Maersk has for the country to support our customers and their domestic and international supply chain needs. Maersk has transformed into a full-service, end-to-end logistics services provider, and our warehouse and distribution solutions take advantage of our shared global network operations to help optimise our customers’ supply chains.
Spread over 19,400sqm, the Cajamar warehouse is located close to the main economic centres of the southeast region and is strategically set up near the main markets for fast-moving consumer goods, retail, technology and electronics, and fashion and lifestyle, among others. The facility is situated 50km from the main airports of Brazil, 120km from the port of Santos, and 30km from Sao Paulo, with quick access to the main highways.
This is one important step on Maersk’s journey into being a global integrator of container logistics. Our new facility in Brazil is part of our investment in the east coast of South America to build our warehousing and contract logistics business.
The new facility offers supply chain management services, including:
- Order fulfilment
- Receipt and storage of goods
- Inventory management
- Picking and packing of pallets or cases
- Loading
- Consolidation and deconsolidation
- Warehouse management system
- Cross-docking
- Other value-added services
It has a racking structure to store up to 21,000 pallet positions and 22 docks, 6-ton floor capacity, J4 sprinklers capacity, and 12m clear height.
