The first transport for Team Belgium arrives in Belek

The first logistics shipment since the collaboration between Gosselin and Team Belgium was an immediate success. Several crates containing various materials were sent to the high-end sports complex, the Gloria Sports Arena in Belek, Turkey. Belgian athletes are preparing intensively for the Olympic Games at this permanent base. 

“To ensure that everything arrived on time, we opted for air freight,” says Nicolas Lens, Key Account Manager at Team Belgium. “We repackaged the shipment to reduce the volume and lower the costs. It was a diverse package with widely varying dimensions and weights. Think of medication and paramedical equipment, mats from the sailing federation, promotional material such as roll-ups and flags, massage tables, and even a weightlifting bar.”

The material was deliberately sent well in advance so that any customs checks would not disrupt the schedule. “Logistics remains a world full of challenges,” adds Izaya Duve, Team Leader Customer Service. “Right up to the last minute, we were in contact with all parties involved to get the shipment cleared through customs and finally get the goods to their destination.” And with success! As the proud Logistics Partner of Team Belgium, Gosselin wishes all athletes a successful preparation during this traditional Olympic autumn training camp. Together we are going for gold!
