Plimsoll Logistics is an International Freight Forwarding and Shipping Agency firm previously operated as a subsidiary of the Great Circle Group of companies. The Great Circle group was founded in the UAE in 1973 to run a breakbulk liner service between the Arabian Gulf and the Indian subcontinent. While the group's core business remains in shipping and transportation, it has diversified widely into Industrial manufacturing, Trading, Real Estate and more. In 1998 all forwarding activity was spun-off under a new image - Plimsoll Logistics. Since then Plimsoll Logistics has grown to form its own identity and currently represents a host of liner, freight forwarding and NVO principals. The strategic importance of Dubai as a regional hub is rapidly increasing. Much of the inbound sea cargo to the Arabian Gulf Countries is transshipped through Jebel Ali. Jebel Ali has also succeeded in becoming a major distribution center for the Gulf as well as East Africa, the CIS, North Africa and East Mediterranean. There is also an increasing manufacturing base in Jebel Ali. Today there are more than 1700 companies represented in the Jebel Ali Free Zone. Dubai and Sharjah airports have long handled significant volumes of sea-air cargo and the importance as air-cargo hub is increasing again, following the resurgence of Asian Economies. Dubai has invested heavily in an airport free zone and a 'cargo village', very much along the same concept as Jebel Ali. These initiatives, along with fast and cost effective handling, have made Dubai successful in increasing the number of airlines using Dubai as hub for most of the region. As the developments outlined above continues, so will the importance of high quality logistics in the UAE increase. Plimsoll Logistics is already part of the evolution, and will through the necessary investments in people, technology and infrastructure, remain an innovator at the forefront of logistics in the UAE.
