Sealand has issued the following statement regarding its transition into a unified brand with the Maersk Company:
Dear Customer,
At Sealand, we are dedicated to empowering you with deep insight and full actionality from first to last mile. The intra-regional markets are key growth markets in the global economy and will be so also in the coming decades, and as your strong and personal partner, we want to equip you with integrated logistics that will keep your supply chain resilient now and, in the future.
Our dedication to empower you to achieve strategic growth through integrated logistics will continue, but our intention is to bring it under a new brand. That of our parent company, Maersk.
We are therefore pleased to share our intention to move towards a singular, unified brand by integrating Maersk brands such as Hamburg Süd and Sealand, among others. Please note that an in-depth review will be conducted before we are able to conclude on the future of each brand in different geographies.
Please rest assured that Maersk will continue to adhere and respect all contracts and agreements that are in place including contract confidentiality, so customers can be assured that your information continues to remain safe and secure.
What does this mean for you?
As a Sealand customer, you will continue to enjoy the same renowned regional expertise and level of service. On top of this, you will gain further access and ease to supply chain services – all under one roof. Whilst Sealand as a brand will be integrated in the Maersk brand and combine its services and offerings with the broader catalogue, your current connections within the Sealand brand will stay the same. Our key focus is to make these changes with a minimum of disruption for you, with the same team supporting you moving forward. We will continuously keep you informed about any changes as we make this transition.
The aim is to support you in creating a more resilient and efficient supply chain, with increased reach and scope.
This integration allows us to truly act as an integrated end-to-end partner. Depending on your needs, you will have access to the resources of all these brands combined, or separately.
We expect that each integration will follow its own timeline and we will continuously keep you updated on the progress of our intention.
We see this as a key step in realising our goal of becoming the integrated end-to-end partner, with the ability to offer you far better service offerings and the resources of all these companies under one roof.
We invite you to read our Questions and Answers section on the intended integration of the brands, as well as contact your current representative for more information on the change.
Should you have any other questions, our customer service and commercial teams are always available to support should you need assistance.
We look forward to continuing to work with you to take the complexity out of shipping and provide you with a smoother logistics experience.
Sincerely,
Sealand - A Maersk Company
