Ocean Network Express (ONE) will reorganise its regional headquarters structure in Asia-Pacific and Africa from 1 April 2027.
The container carrier will establish a new Asia-Pacific Regional Headquarters in Singapore. The operation will combine its East Asia and South Asia regional functions, which are currently based in Hong Kong and Singapore.
The new headquarters will oversee ONE’s business across 15 markets. Louis Tang will serve as Region Head for Asia-Pacific.
ONE will also centralise the management of its East, West and Southern African markets at its Dubai Regional Headquarters. Meanwhile, its London office will continue managing Europe, the Mediterranean and North Africa.
“Asia Pacific and Africa are important growth regions for ONE. Our regional headquarters sit closest to our customers and our markets, and these changes will enable us to make faster decisions and accelerate growth. They will also support further investments in both regions,” said Till Ole Barrelet, Chief Executive Officer of ONE.
ONE said the changes will not immediately affect its services, customer contracts or daily operations. Local teams will remain the main points of contact for customers.
The carrier will implement the restructuring in phases. Initially, existing teams will continue in their current roles under the new regional structures. ONE will align functions and responsibilities as the transitions progress.
The reorganisation forms part of the carrier’s ONE 2030 strategy and its plans for further growth in Asia-Pacific and Africa.
