Three decades of moving the world
with precision and care.

From a small forwarding desk in Singapore in 1989 to a publicly traded global logistics platform serving 18,000+ enterprises, our story is built on one principle: do exactly what you said you would, every single time.

Our story

Founded on a single contract. Scaled by a single promise.

In 1989, our founder Tan Wei Lin signed Global Transit's first contract โ€” a weekly air-freight consolidation between Singapore and the Port of Long Beach for an electronics manufacturer. That lane still runs today, now alongside 4,300 others.

Through every expansion โ€” into ocean freight in 1996, into bonded warehousing in 2003, into customs brokerage in 2008, and into our public listing on the NYSE in 2017 โ€” the discipline has been the same: invest in people, in technology, and in network density before chasing volume.

Today Global Transit operates 86 owned facilities, 4,200 owned tractors and a digital platform that processes 41 milestones per second across our network.

Mission & Values

What we stand for, in plain language.

๐ŸŽฏ

Certainty

Logistics is a promise about time. We design every workflow, contract and SLA so that the promise we make is the outcome you receive.

๐Ÿค

Partnership

We are an extension of our customers' teams. Our pricing is transparent, our incentives are aligned, and our reviews are quarterly and frank.

๐Ÿ”

Visibility

If you can't see it, you can't manage it. Every shipment, every dollar of duty, every kilogram of COโ‚‚ โ€” surfaced in real time.

๐ŸŒฑ

Stewardship

We have a Science Based Targets initiative-validated commitment to a 50% reduction in Scope 1+2 emissions by 2032 and net-zero by 2045.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ

Integrity

AEO, C-TPAT and TAPA-A certifications. Zero-tolerance anti-bribery program audited annually by an independent third party.

โšก

Velocity

Decisions made closest to the shipment. Our regional control towers are empowered to commit resources up to seven figures without escalation.

Leadership

The people accountable for the promise.

Sustainability

A measurable path to net-zero by 2045.

Logistics is responsible for roughly 11% of global COโ‚‚. We've committed โ€” and externally validated โ€” a Science Based Targets initiative roadmap that bends our trajectory in line with a 1.5ยฐC scenario.

  • 50% Scope 1+2 reduction vs. 2019 baseline by 2032
  • 30% Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) blend on premium air lanes by 2030
  • 1,400 EV last-mile vehicles deployed across 12 cities by end of 2026
  • Customer-facing GLEC v3.1 carbon reporting available on every shipment
