Our Locations
Six Strategic Locations. Three Continents. One Standard of Service.
Marwest LLC's six offices are positioned at the critical nodes of the Africa-China-USA trade triangle. Each office is staffed by specialists who understand the local regulatory environment, carrier relationships, and customs requirements of their region — and every office operates to the same service standards as our Texas headquarters.
Texas Headquarters
Our founding and principal office. Handles all USA-origin freight, customs brokerage, USDOT compliance, and global account management. Home to our executive team.
Georgia Office
Supporting the US East Coast port corridor. Savannah is one of the USA's busiest container ports — our Georgia office gives clients direct access to East Coast ocean freight and intermodal services.
Shandong Office
Our China export hub. Qingdao is one of China's top container ports. This office handles all China-origin ocean freight, factory inspections, export customs, and LCL consolidation for African and US importers.
Namibia Office
Our Southern Africa hub. Walvis Bay is sub-Saharan Africa's most efficient deep-water port — a natural gateway for landlocked SADC countries. Our Namibia team handles customs clearance for Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.
South Africa Office
Three South African cities, one integrated team. Durban handles ocean freight; Cape Town handles wine, produce, and cold-chain cargo; Johannesburg covers airfreight and inland distribution across South Africa.
Togo Office
Our West Africa hub. Lomé Port is one of West Africa's deepest and most efficient container terminals. This office serves Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Mali, and the broader West African region.
Why These Six Locations Matter
Port Access
Every Marwest office is located in or adjacent to a major port — Savannah, Qingdao, Walvis Bay, Durban, Lomé. This gives us first-hand knowledge of port conditions, vessel schedules, and congestion patterns.
Local Customs Authority
Each office employs customs-licensed professionals who operate under the local customs authority — enabling us to clear cargo ourselves, without relying on subcontracted agents.
Time Zone Coverage
Our six offices span UTC-6 to UTC+8 — providing near-24-hour coverage for client enquiries, documentation, and emergency cargo management across all our key trade lanes.
Language Capability
English, Mandarin, French, and Afrikaans capability across our offices. Critical for managing supplier documentation in China and import customs in Francophone West Africa.
