Cooperative Logistics Network enjoys 2nd Annual Meeting: Logistics and Materials Handling

Thailand has been playing host to the annual gathering of The Cooperative Logistics Network. 172 delegates, came together from 8th -10th May to cooperate to succeed

 

 

With a 20 per cent increase in attendance, this successful meeting comes on the back of a tremendous year in which the network passed a significant milestone, 200 member companies worldwide. Coverage now stands at 234 agents in 154 cities in 93 countries.

“The COOP offers us opportunities that we simply can’t find anywhere else or even in fact afford ourselves. Take the marketing package for example, the costs involved in this are extremely high and as a member of the COOP, we receive this free of charge. I already have the brochure and video and will probably get the newly launched website too,” said one enthused delegate.

Berthing Buses

The old adage might say you can wait an age for a bus before two turn up at once, but in the case of LINKS FORWARDERS, a member of The COOP in Mumbai, it was more like 250! They were recently charged with loading 250 buses and trucks over 4 RO/RO vessels in a day at Mumbai Port ready for shipping to Ghana, Colombo, Kuwait, Maputo, Dar Es Salaam and Colombo.

 

 

“I must admit this was quite a challenging although ultimately successful day! All the vessels were berthing within a few hours of each other at separate berths, which meant correctly identifying each vehicle by the correct vessel with labels and chassis numbers,” said Manager Nakul Tanna.

In sum the team handled the following for the customer,

• Vehicles cleaning upon arrival at Docks

• Re-fuelling

• Damage Checks and Surveys

• Arranging Driver Permits for Drivers to Enter Ports as these are given on a per operation basis only

• Customs Brokerage

• Stevedoring of the Trucks and Buses

• Freight Forwarding

We invite any members with shipments in Mumbai to get in touch with the team, particularly those involved in the Auto industry.
