Mondiale VGL S.L. successfully transports an international project cargo of olive plants from Spain to India
Mondiale VGL S.L., a Globalia member based in Madrid, Spain, has successfully completed an overseas Out-of-Gauge (OOG) project, transporting live olive plants with extra dimensions from Valencia, Spain to Nhava Sheva, India. This is the largest OOG project for Spain so far this year on a single vessel.
The shipment included 13×40′ Flat Racks with dimensions of 960 x 320 x 365 cm and a weight of 17 tons each, and 8×40′ Open Top Out of Gauge containers with a maximum height of 365 cm and a weight of 17 tons each.
To ensure the safe and efficient transport of the olive plants, the team utilized a 40′ Flat Rack Out of Gauge (OOG) with a lowered trailer.
Alfredo Rossi, Country Manager at Mondiale VGL S.L., explains how they navigated the challenges involved in transporting the OOG shipment: “This shipment presented several challenges, including intense coordination between analysis, phytosanitary certifications, special transportation, ship closing schedules, and the availability of special equipment. However, we addressed these by meticulous planning and maintaining close communication with all parties involved to ensure every requirement was met seamlessly. Handling project cargo shipments like this requires a high level of expertise and dedication, and our team consistently rises to the occasion.”
Congratulations to Mondiale VGL for the seamless handling of this project cargo!
