Transworld Logistics has successfully completed several impressive shipments (total of 24 units) from Mumbai, India to Tincan, Nigeria. They faced many issues along the way, the main one being spacing with competitive price. Major cargoes have gotten shut out from a very recent BB carrier due to space and Transworld have come in the picture on the very last moment. Arranging the space on the last minute was a very challenging task. Furthermore, the vessel has arrived at the Mumbai port one day prior than the initial announcement which again made the situation quite chaotic, including arranging the customs documentation etc. The day the vessel has berthed at the Mumbai port, the Cyclone “Gulab” at the Arabian Sea had hit and due to which the weather conditions worsen the operations. However, out of all the hurdles they managed to load all the units on time by running to post to post. Details of shipment they handled:
