PANGEA Members Cooperation, Germany and Tunisia, in a RO/RO Project.
We are pleased to report of a succesful cooperation between PANGEA Members. BLUE FREIGHT SERVICE, from Germany, and HORIZONS MARITIMES, from Tunisia handled a successful RO/RO project from Germany to Tunisia.
They recently shipped Civil Protection sophisticated equipment vehicles ex Germany to Tunisia which were a gift of the German embassy to the Tunisian government. The vehicles consisted of 2 Firefighting trucks (11,900 Kg / 129,748 cbm), 2 Firefighting vans (14,000 Kg / 66,560 cbm) and 3 Firefighting pick up cars (6,300 Kg / 54,364 cbm). The shipment was routed via Bonn – Antwerp – Salerno – Tunis La Goulette to final destination at Tunis City, with a total transit time of 13 days.
Due to a delay during manufacturing at shippers side and in order to keep delivery cut off in Tunis, part of the Shipment was transported from D-53227 via dedicated Truck Transport, this included express delivery from Bonn to POL Salerno in Italy (approx. 1620 Km distance).
BLUE FREIGHT SERVICE coordinated the pre-carriage as well as deep sea haulage along with export customs clearance and HORIZONS MARITIMES was PIC at destination for Consignee and coordinated cargo release. During the whole project a steady flow of information through PANGEA channel was requested by Shipper and Cnee due to the importance of this shipment.
