Teamwork and efficient logistics …

In an example of teamwork and efficient logistics, Röhlig- Grindrod moved an enormous PET (polyetheleneterapthalate) plant from Bellville, Western Cape, to the Middle East. Getting the 1 722 cubic-metre breakbulk cargo to its destination involved the purchasing and forwarding of 49 forty-foot containers, as well as the part-charter of a vessel. Because of road embargoes on the movement of abnormal cargo during the December and January holiday periods, the 18 breakbulk pieces were transported to the port within a 12-hour period to make the booked vessel.
