OCS History

OCS (Overseas Courier Service) was organized in 1957 by a consortium of major newspaper publishers in Tokyo, Japan, as a first-of-its-kind global, overnight air delivery system for time-sensitive business publications and financial news.

Within a few years, trade developed multi-laterally between OCS stations on all continents, as regional branches in this growing network generated local export business

As OCS evolved, we adapted our network to the movement of all types of business materials, from small documents to software media to hardware systems to commodities, in weights from just a few ounces to thousands of pounds.

Today, OCS services range from express courier package delivery to heavy air freight to fulfillment and wholesale distribution. OCS still holds to the principles of good overseas positioning and alliances.
