COSCO Container Lines Americas announces major restructuring

COSCO Container Lines Americas has announced a major restructuring and relocation of its offices throughout the U.S. to improve "overall performance and efficiency," noting the plan to close eight offices and transition to a single operation center should be implemented by the end of this year.

The company said it would establish the COSCO North American Operation Center, through which most of its business will be funneled, and that they will announce the location once it has been selected.

The Boston, Charleston, Chicago, Henderson, New York, Norfolk, San Francisco and Seattle CCLA offices will be closed and all their functions will be transferred to the new operation center, the statement said.

Concurrently, the company reports most of the customer service and operations performed at CCLA headquarters in Secaucus, N.J. will also be transferred to the new operation center.

CCLA said its customer's service would remain uninterrupted throughout the restructuring process.
