Project Logistics

Swades Logistics has been a leader in moving project cargoes from source to destination.

• Site survey / feasibility studies (routes, weather, political climate)

• Full / part charter parties (air charters, time/ voyage charters)

• Multi-modal transport (rail, tug & barge, heavy lift)

• Special equipment transport (flat racks, open tops, platforms, tween deck solutions)

• Freight negotiation (COA negotiation, long term rate validities)

• Administrative support (customs clearance, trade documentation)

• In house flexible IT solutions and tracking and tracing
