Located at the heart of the Midwest, our Chicago (Franklin Park) office is Blue Water’s strategic hub in the United States. We offer comprehensive transport and logistics solutions across key global markets. Thanks to our prime location near Chicago O’Hare International Airport, we can handle air freight, road transport, sea freight solutions and courier services smoothly and efficiently, tailoring them to meet the needs of both local and international clients.

Our experienced team is dedicated to providing a reliable, high-quality service with a strong focus on personal engagement and collaboration. We facilitate cargo flows to and from major markets in Europe, the Asia-Pacific region and Oceania, helping customers to navigate complex global supply chains with confidence.

Our Chicago office also provides a comprehensive range of added-value logistics solutions, including customs clearance, cargo insurance and specialised exhibition and trade show services throughout North America. Whether we are supporting a one-off shipment or coordinating large-scale trade fair logistics, our experts ensure precision, care and timeliness at every stage.

A key strength of this location is our warehousing and distribution capabilities. Our 26,000-square-foot connected facility features over 4,000 pallet positions, six loading docks and one drive-in door. Designed for flexibility and speed, the warehouse supports cross-docking, short- and long-term storage and customised pick-and-pack services for B2B and B2C clients. This enables us to meet the demands of fast-moving supply chains, e-commerce fulfilment and the handling of high-value cargo – all under one roof.
