Alexander Global Logistics Commissions Columbia Pro-Rail And Hyundai Glovis To Ship Twenty Excavators To Germany
25. February 2021
In the first week of January, our German member Alexander Global Logistics (AGL) was contracted to transport 20 excavators from China to Germany. On receiving the requisition, the AGL team in Germany turned to our Chinese member, Columbia Pro-Rail Transport Services and our RoRo partner Hyundai Glovis
The Columbia Pro Rail team organized the pre-carriage and transport under FOB terms from Changsha to Shanghai using four oversize trucks. The entire shipment was divided into three lots:

The Columbia Pro Rail Team organized the handling at the Port of Shanghai where the cargo was loaded which was very important due to the specific loading conditions. AGL was also very particular with the lashing and securing of these excavators which was requested by their clients. One of the biggest challenges the Columbia Pro Rail Team overcame was arranging the transport of these 20 excavators from the only week before the Chinese New Year. As we read this article, the excavators are on their way to the Port of Bremerhaven on a Hyundai Glovis RoRo vessel.
Mr. Jan-Moritz Höler, Team Manager Sales at AGL praised the Columbia Pro Rail team and mention Mr. Fenny Swei for completing the job very well and professionally. This project is yet another example of how having the right partner is important. We at the Project Logistics Alliance HQ are filled with gratitude to have such outstanding members and partners in the network. Many congratulations to all the parties involved and we wish them success with more such future collaborations!
