  • Yusen Logistics (Americas) Inc. supported Boeing Co.'s work in coordinating shipments of relief supplies from Seattle to Charleston, S.C., to aid in the recovery from Hurricane Matthew. Yusen provided delivery to Sea-Tac Airport after coordinating warehouse services at its Seattle branch, which included receiving, sorting, labeling, and repacking supplies such as bottled water, diapers, blankets, and sanitizing wipes.
