BDP, a Philadelphia-based logistics and transportation services provider, has named Genesis Forwarding Services as its global network partner in the United Kingdom.

For 14 years BDP had worked with JE Bernard and Co., another U.K.-based logistics company, until it was acquired earlier this year by SDV International Logistics of France.

"Genesis offers a fresh presence and will be a potent fit for BDP clients doing business into and out of the U.K.," says BDP President and CEO Richard J. Bolte Jr.

Established in 1986, Genesis is one of the largest independent freight forwarders in the U.K. Its services include import/export air and ocean freight, European road freight, customs brokerage and total logistics solutions. In addition to its Eastbourne headquarters, Genesis has four other U.K. locations, five U.S. offices, and two offices in China, as well as facilities in Ireland, Singapore, Taiwan and Dubai.
