Atlanta GA Third Party Logistics

Atlanta - Governor Sonny Perdue announced today that GLOVIS America, Inc., the third party logistics management company for Hyundai Motor America and Kia Motors America, Inc., will consolidate their Southeastern auto processing centers at the Port of Brunswick. The consolidation will create an additional 378 port-related jobs for South Georgia.
The company cited Georgia's leadership, the Port of Brunswick's superior facilities, the excellent labor force and the work of International Auto Processing (IAP) as key factors in its decision to locate in Glynn County. Hyundai Motor America has shipped vehicles through the Port of Brunswick's Colonel's Island facility for sixteen consecutive years.
Marvin Baisden, Vice President and COO of GLOVIS America, Inc., said the company was impressed with the state's past track record as well as its commitment to future growth in Brunswick. "Doing business with Georgia, the Georgia Ports Authority and IAP has and continues to be a great partnership," Baisden said. "Our decision to double our business in Brunswick is a direct result of our excellent working relationship with our partners in Georgia."
GLOVIS America Inc. will utilize IAP, a full service, independently owned company, specializing in automobile processing, to provide a wide range of vehicle preparation services at the Port of Brunswick. "We are excited about this new consolidation and want to thank our numerous partners who have helped to make this opportunity possible," said Jim Showalter, President and CEO of IAP.
In 2004, GLOVIS projects it will import 70,000 Hyundai vehicles. Within the next month, GLOVIS will also begin importing Kia vehicles and plans to process an additional 60,000. A total of 130,000 Hyundai and Kia autos will be shipped through the Port of Brunswick's Colonel's Island facility in 2004 and is expected to increase annually.
