Scan Global Logistics (SGL) further strengthens its strategic position in East Africa by opening its first office in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, a major regional gateway. Access to the Port of Dar es Salaam offers SGL an advantage in serving landlocked countries such as Rwanda, Burundi, Zambia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, unlocking new opportunities for cross-border logistics solutions.
