Associated Global Systems

Associated Global Systems (AGS) began business in 1958[1] operating as a domestic and international air freight forwarder.[2] AGS was a client based, privately held 250 million dollar company. On March 29th, 2012, Nippon Express U.S.A., Inc. ("NEU"; Kenryo Senda, President), a local subsidiary of Nippon Express Co., Ltd. (Kenji Watanabe, President), acquired the Associated Global Systems, Inc. ("AGS").

Founded by the former president, Norman Freeman,[3] who initially did his own deliveries with the family station wagon. Since then AGS has expanded to over 400 offices worldwide.[4]

It has recently expanded its operations to include home delivery services and other transportation-related areas.[5] It is headquartered in New Hyde Park, New York, United States.[6]

AGS is one of the highest leasers of air freight space in the world.
