APL helped the Port of Kobe, Japan to rebuild after a devastating earthquake.

APL’s long history of opening and developing new markets has benefited many countries around the world. More recently, because of its reputation as an innovator, the company has been called upon to work closely with governments interested in improving their countries’ transportation infrastructure.

Specialists have worked on a broad range of projects around the world, using the cross-functional expertise APL is now known for. In the late 1970s, the company was instrumental in the development of the Port of Kaohsiung, Taiwan, now one of the largest hubs in Asia. Similarly - and building on a century-old collaboration with China - APL has helped the Port of Shanghai, broaden its capabilities as a major gateway of the new century.

By sharing its extensive knowledge, the company is helping others to pave the way for a prosperous future. Whether working to improve Mexico’s intermodal rail system or helping the Port of Karachi plan for a busy future, APL remains committed to expanding horizons.
