As leading global automotive maker Geely Auto prepared for its official entry into the Australian market, its all-electric EX5 SUVs recently made their way to Aussie shores thanks to the finished vehicle logistics (FVL) solutions provided CEVA Logistics.
CEVA Logistics is a trusted global leader in automotive logistics and supply chain management, including local and interstate car transport to any part of Australia. The announcement reinforces Geely’s commitment to the Australian market.
Geely’s strategic partnership with CEVA Logistics marks a key milestone in the brand’s commitment to delivering a premium service experience to Australian dealers and consumers alike.
