Since Heinemann Americas opened its Miami office nearly seven years ago, it has become a major player in the U.S. cruise market, securing partnerships with some of the world’s largest cruise lines including Carnival, Royal Caribbean, MSC and Princess. To meet the logistics needs of these new and expanding contracts, HAI selected Bolloré Logistics to manage its state-side warehouse.

Bolloré Logistics USA has a broad range of capabilities and experienced staff to handle both general cargo and project cargo with specific expertise in a number of vertical sectors such as oil & gas, aerospace, cosmetics and perfumes, healthcare, F&F, chemicals, fashion and retail, food and beverages, perishables and many others.

Nadine Heubel, CEO of Heinemann Americas, said, “With Heinemann Americas’ continued expansion in the US cruise market, we needed a logistics and warehouse partner that could provide the resources, expertise and space to support these new ventures. When exploring potential partners for our Miami-based operations, Bolloré was the clear choice—and we are excited to be working with them.”

Yves Laforgue, CEO Americas of Bolloré Logistics, said, “We are thrilled to add Heinemann Americas to our list of prominent partners in our Miami regional travel retail hub. HAI and Bolloré Logistics are sharing the same values of excellence, sustainability and customer centricity and we are excited to be working closely together and support each other’s continued success in the Americas.”
