The Logistics Plus Turkey Team successfully delivered 13 brewery tanks to a factory in downtown Izmir, Turkey. Dimensions for this project cargo were 9 units of 22.00m x 6.66m x 6.82m each 31 tons, and 4 units of 20.00m x 5.11m x 5.25m each 24 tons.
The project required significant engineering and precision. 13 brewery tanks; 12 nights; 4 police cars; 4 escort cars; 2 bucket trucks; and a total of 42 people all in one convoy! Traffic lights, closed-circuit televisions, and tags on the route all had to be removed, and electricity had to be cut throughout the route for safe transportation. The route was to a downtown location, so the movement required accurate planning across several divisions.
We’d like to thank all who contributed in this great project. Here is a video showcasing some photographs from this project.

Here is an “LP Proud” shout-out to the Logistics Plus China Shipyard Team! Steven and Sam – with the very welcome support of Nico (for containerized shipments) and Xin (who keeps track of everything from Antwerp) – have arranged, and continue to arrange, a large number of deliveries of parts and equipment to various shipyards in China, Korea and Japan.
These project cargo shipments are not ‘the biggest’ out there (see slideshow), but they are still tricky to handle, and most of them need special customs procedures via a ‘bonded logistics zone’. Despite the challenges, our ‘China Team’ deals with every curve ball thrown at them. While they too often go unnoticed, it’s these ‘small’ shipments that make the difference and keep our customers happy and coming back for more. So, thank you LP China Shipyard Team for your Passion for Excellence!
