SINGAPORE and TRIPOLI, LIBYA, 12 August 2008 – BDP Project Logistics, a wholly-owned subsidiary of privately-held global logistics firm, BDP International, has opened a delegate office in Tripoli, with Libyan-based I.S.A. International Shipping Agency (I.S.A.).

"We are excited to have a physical presence in Libya," said Luc Van Heygen, BDP’s managing director for project logistics in the Americas and Europe. "We have every indication that the North African project market will grow dramatically over the next two to five years. Our focus is to build a domestic infrastructure for new industrial projects expected to materialize in 2009 to 2012."

BDP Project Logistics/I.S.A. managing director, Khalifa El Bleazi, added, "North Africa is emerging as one of the world’s fastest-growing markets for project logistics, and our affiliation with a respected global brand like BDP puts us both in a stronger position to support this activity. Combined with our intimate knowledge of the region, BDP’s advanced logistics technology and global network of subsidiaries, strategic alliances and partnerships will provide customers with the most cost-effective solutions to their infrastructure projects."

BDP Project Logistics, which is headquartered in Singapore, entered into a partnership with I.S.A. in early 2007. In conjunction with the opening of the new office, BDP Project Logistics has appointed Mongi Zeglam as its commercial delegate for Libya. Zeglam will serve as the company’s liaison, reporting to Emanuel Scerra, BDP Project Logistics’ regional director for Europe and North Africa.

In addition to Tripoli, BDP Project Logistics/I.S.A. has offices in Benghazi, Homs, Marsa Brega, Melitta and Misurata, and is opening another office at the new Tripoli airport. Supporting BDP Project Logistics’ local forwarding activities, it also offers a complete portfolio of logistics and transportation services for conventional cargo, fairs and exhibitions, customs brokerage and others.
