Globalink Logistics has set high standards in project logistics by moving an over sized cargo weighing 155 tonnes from China to Tajikistan via Turkey. The 5 meter high shipment was meant for the Nurek Hydro Power Project in Tajikistan- a project with which they have been involved for over 10 years. Globalink Logistics is a Globalia member in Turkmenbashi and Ashgabat, Turkmenistan; Tbilisi, Poti, Georgia and Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan; Baku, Azerbaijan; Yerevan, Armenia, Aktau, Almaty, Atyrau, and Astana, Kazakhstan; Moscow and St. Petersburg, Russia; Kiev, Ukraine; Dushanbe, Tajikistan; and Tashkent, Uzbekistan.

The road segment of the cargo’s journey from Bautino Port through the mountainous terrains of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan called for specialized transport solutions. They used specialized multi-axel trailers, multiple 6×6 heavy-duty tractors, and extensive civil works to ensure the cargo’s safe passage. On reaching its destination in Tajikistan, Globalink’s team managed the import customs clearance, discharging and cargo installation processes.

To quote Siddique Khan, CEO of Globalink, “This shipment was a challenging one and moving through the Black Sea and the Kerch Strait required precise timing to align with the Volga-Don river navigation season’s end. Our latest project cargo operation highlights Globalink’s three decades of experience handling complex project logistics in challenging environments like Central Asia and the Caucasus.”

Members will now be able to check the availability of containers on Container xChange – the leading online marketplace for shipping containers – right from the Members Area

In a strategic move to elevate container management capabilities, Globalia Logistics Network has integrated the renowned online marketplace, Container xChange, into its Members Area.

“We have added their API in our intranet which enables our members to access directly through their browser to search available leasing containers. This integration streamlines container management for Globalia members, offering a user-friendly experience within the familiar Members Area,” explains Antonio Torres, the President and Founder of Globalia Logistics Network.

Container xChange aims to relieve the burden on industry professionals, simplifying their operations and decision-making by providing real-time data access and automating the entire process. This platform helps forwarders to find the best prices and rates globally by choosing from 100,000+ offers in over 1,500+ locations.

Moreover, besides having direct access to xChange services throughout the Member Area, Globalia members will benefit from a 10% discount on subscriptions to their platform.

Dr. Johannes Schlingmeier, co-founder, and CEO of Container xChange, underscored a prevalent challenge within the container logistics sector— the slow adoption of technology hindering real-time analysis of price and leasing rates. Furthermore, acknowledging the transformative potential of technology in the container shipping industry, he stressed the significance of harnessing big data for more informed decision-making. In his words, “Container xChange simplifies the access to data so industry participants can complement the experience and offline knowledge with the latest facts when making decisions”

This collaboration marks a significant step towards optimizing container logistics and enhancing the overall efficiency of Globalia Logistics Network. This latest implementation is part of the digital strategy conducted by Globalia aimed to offer members the latest technological tools in the logistics market.

On the other hand, FreightViewer comes with a tailored quoting website for member’s companies where all customers and other partners will be able to login an register to check online rates at any time.

Andrea Martin, FreightViewer Coordinator of Globalia Logistics network says, “This new method adapts the system to a volatile rate market since it enables the offer of daily or weekly rates as well as spot rates.
