Thailand - CEVA's new vehicle logistics division may deliver up to 10% of its annual turnover.

CEVA, which operates freight management and contract logistics divisions, said the new vehicle logistics is targeted at car dealers, automotive manufacturers, auction houses and finance companies. It can move up to 880 cars at one time and has a storage capability of up to 20,000 cars.

Mark Thornton, section general manager of CEVA vehicle logistics said: "Customer needs are changing, and as more companies are looking to alternatives to self drive delivery of vehicles, the launch of this new division will meet the growing demands for better information, professionally-managed delivery service and competitive pricing for their vehicle transport needs."

The company said it has already carried out over 98,000 car movements since April 2008 with a fleet of 150 vehicles and 400 skilled workers.
