Ultieme vorm van samenwerking voor meer dan 70 koelcontainers

“De sleutel: Efficiëntie van de planning. Een lichter (barge) om 72+ TEU in 1 keer mee te nemen. Anders zitten we met verschillende calls op MPET, met het risico dat we de afvaart missen én slagen we erin om ze bij aankomst meteen terug te koelen,” legt Bruno Cambien, Gosselin xxx in een mail uit aan MSC’s Intermodal Executive Martijn Lagaune. Het is de start van een opmerkelijk traject.

Ultimate form of collaboration for more than 70 refrigerated containers

“The key: efficient planning. Transporting a lighter (barge) 72+ TEU in one go. Otherwise, we would have several calls at MPET, with the risk of missing the departure, and we would be able to cool them down immediately upon arrival,” explains Bruno Cambien in an email to MSC’s Intermodal Executive Martijn Lagaune. It is the start of a remarkable journey.
