Abstract
This case focuses on the developments of TNT''s Clinical Express Service in Asia. TNT''s global ambition by 2005 is to gain a majority share of the clinical trials logistics market. By August 2003, the company had established a track record for timely delivery and reliability of this service in its first phase of development in Asia.

There were several questions he had to consider in creating the next wave of growth: (1) what expansion opportunities were there?; and (2) how could he improve TNT''s position in this industry in Asia?
