Nazha & Darwish

Damascus Free Zone

P.O. Box 60690

Damascus, Syria

Tel: +963 (11) 211 1870

Fax: +963 (11) 212 8911

Contacts:

Mr. Samer Darwish, Managing Director

Mobile: +963 (9) 4421 8158

Ms. Sueli Montilha, Service Manager

Mobile: +963 (9) 6662 7112

Nazha & Darwish should feel right at home in GPLN due to the fact that three-out-of their four references were current GPLN members in good standing (in three different regions of the world I might add) and the company that recommended them for membership was also a GPLN member. This speaks highly to me that this company will get right to work with the other GPLN members around the world. In fact, since Nazha & Darwish applied for membership we had two members come forward looking for help in Syria already. Syria has been an open market for GPLN so we are especially glad to have this covered now.

We welcome Nazha & Darwish to the GPLN team!

Asia Imperial Cargo Logistics (AICL), recently took up the challenge and completed the transport of a yacht mold with a total volume of 3,000cbm, having dimensions of 140 ft long by 30 ft wide by 24.6 ft high, from Shanghai, China to Vancouver, WA, USA.

AICL faced several difficulties in handling this shipment. The dimension was too large to be delivered by barge and conventional line in one piece. Working with the yacht manufacturer to determine the best way to deliver the mold was in two pieces, using two barges from our client’s factory to the Port of Shanghai, where the two pieces would be assembled for loading on the assigned break bulk vessel.

The client, lacking the knowledge of how to provide the break bulk carrier with proper structural drawings for loading and lashing, AICL coordinated with the yacht manufacturer and the break bulk carrier to produce the structural documents to the satisfaction of all concerned. AICL, having the structural documents in hand were then able to assemble the two pieces of the mold and design a special loading and lashing plan for this 3000 cbm / 70 ton shipment for safe delivery to the consignee in Vancouver, Washington, USA. The shipment arrived on time and to the highest satisfaction of our client.

Since most of the yacht manufacturers are based in Taiwan and China area, where AICL’s own offices are located, AICL is in a unique position to provide customized and highly-responsive service to their clients in the most efficient and cost-effective way. This case is a good example to show how AICL turn mission impossible into possible.

AICL was established in 2000 and headquartered in Taipei, Taiwan, with branch offices in Taipei, and Kaohsiung, Taiwan as well as branch offices in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, and Tianjin, China. Based on its strong network of offices, AICL possess the flexibility and expertise to respond to the ever changing markets locally and internationally. From handling project cargos to general forwarding traffic, each client can expect personal attention in the handling of their shipments from the point of origin to its final destination.

Project Cargo & Yacht Transport is the only international transportation firm in Turkey incorporating all logistics support required for boats, yachts, and energy industry as well. Project Cargo & Yacht Transport carries out boat and yacht transportation with its professional team who have all necessary qualifications for their field, especially for the European Union and also the Middle East, North Africa, and Far East markets. Project Cargo & Yacht Transport has been performing transportation operations with over 250 boats, motorized yachts, sailing boats, assault boats and catamarans having different dimensions from 6 meters to 40 meters and weighing from 10 tons to 250 tons.

The synergy Project Cargo & Yacht Transport created in the industry with team spirit, having experience in the field, and more importantly being professionally responsible is greatly appreciated by local customers and in the global market as well.

Project Cargo & Yacht Transport started off in 2006 with a professional team consisting of individuals who only specialise in project cargo, heavy freight and yacht transport. Their 13 years experience in the transport sector removed them from the approach “we can carry it all” and moved Project Cargo & Yacht Transport closer to the idea of carrying specific and exclusive cargoes and focusing on this niche only. They have therefore taken their place in the sector as an initiator with a different concept which only serves in the door-to-door transport of specific cargoes. On top of that it is an indisputable fact that such transport requires a firm financial strength. One of the most pre-eminent factors in Project Cargo & Yacht Transport being able to conclude well any operations it has undertaken and to render services of high quality is its strong financial structure.

The Yacht Department successfully carries out its motor yacht, sailboat, assault boat, catamaran loadings from 5 meters to 42 meters and from 10 tons to 220 tons and also accommodates in its organization the logistics group which supports such transport. Just last month Project Cargo & Yacht Transport transported 12 yachts from the United States to Turkey successfully by specialized vessel for boat transport different types of yachts were carried at the same time. Some of the yachts, for example, that Project Cargo & Yacht Transport transported had dimensions of:

They exported two 18 m Coast Guard vessels from Turkey to Abu Dhabi:

Some of the operations were hard because of the dimensions:

But as always the specialized staff of Project Cargo & Yacht Transport are ready to handle the heavy lifting projects and yachts.
