Founded in 1990, the Topocean Group has experienced 21 years of
continuous growth serving the fast growing Asia trade. By the late
1990’s, Topocean had a well established network of offices
and agents throughout Asia. By the turn of the century, Topocean
was well positioned with own offices in many locations throughout
China. As U.S. importers sourcing demands shifted from South China
to the growing Yangtze River Delta region, so too did Topocean staff
and capabilities. Topocean currently has a presence in every major
port in China.
Topocean has been voted one of the leading NVOCC’s in Asia
on a number of occasions by AFIA in Singapore during their annual
award ceremonies. Though Topocean is not yet a household name, ocean
carriers know Topocean well as the Group moves shipments on more
than 15 carriers from Asia to the United States. As the NVOCC and
forwarding industry has consolidated, Topocean has become one of
the few companies that can focus on U.S. importer needs providing
clients with a rare combination of competitive rate structures and
focused customer follow up.
Topocean is not simply a large NVOCC. The demands of the U.S. inbound
container volume growth has provided opportunities to develop logistics
capabilities. Topocean offers warehousing and distribution services
in Southern California operating more than 400,000 square feet of
logistics facilities. In 2005, bending to the demand of our clients,
Topocean expanded “Topland”, our domestic logistics
company to include domestic transportation services.
Today Topocean has relationships with all of the large FTL and
LTL trucking companies as we handle the domestic deliveries on behalf
of our import clients. Southern California has become an important
gateway for shipments originating in Asia. More companies are breaking
their containers on the west coast and delivering them direct to
their customers rather than send them to regional inland distribution
centers.
