Livingston International acquires HIPAGE to expand operations in southeastern US
Livingston International has acquired Norfolk, Virginia-based HIPAGE Company, Inc. This move extends Livingston’s customs and compliance expertise as well as its international freight forwarding capability to companies importing and exporting through the southeastern US. This acquisition also gives Livingston added expertise in the operation and administration of foreign trade zones (FTZs).
According to Livingston International, "This addition of a strong regional customs broker and international freight forwarder to our growing US operations strengthens our air/ocean brokerage, freight forwarding and export offerings and enhances our attractiveness, not only to clients who want a strong service provider in the region, but also to the many clients seeking a national, full-service customs broker."
HIPAGE employs over 100 people in Norfolk, Virginia and other offices in Atlanta and Savannah, Georgia; Charleston, South Carolina; Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh and Wilmington, North Carolina; Dublin and Richmond, Virginia; and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Founded in 1927, the company specializes in customs brokerage and air, ocean and domestic forwarding as well as export services. Like Livingston, HIPAGE is C-TPAT-certified.
