TAIWANESE transportation and logistics provider Dimerco helped a major Chinese packaging machinery supplier of the bottling industry, Tech-Long Inc, to display its nine massive blow moulding, filling and capping machines, totalling 26.9 metric tonnes in weight, at the National Plastics Exhibition at the Orange County Convention Centre (OCCC) in Orlando, Florida.
Dimerco, faced with vessel delays and a Customs hold on arrival at Savannah Port, managed to have the consignment arrive at the destination on time for day one of the major trade show, the company said.
The out of gauge cargo had travelled from Tech-Long's factory in Guangzhou, China and Dimerco was responsible for managing and planning the most efficient route, arranging sea freight and inland transportation, to US Customs brokerage and coordinating with the OCCC's nominated logistics provider.
"However, once Dimerco received notification that the cargo had been unavoidably delayed, this is where experience and an agile network enabled the company to develop an effective recovery plan and provide an alternative option to the planned trans loading of the containers at the port," the company said. Instead of trans loading the containers in Savannah to 53-dry vans, Dimerco suggested delivery of the machines by truck directly to the exhibition centre in Orlando, saving a vital 2 days.
Business development manager of Dimerco Express (USA) Corp Atlanta Branch, William Kessler, said: "Although, the cargo was delayed at sea because of the oversize height and width of the cargo, it could only be legally driven by day, Dimerco was able to organise and reschedule the transportation with our long-term trucking partner. By operating as a 'control tower' employing effective communication and working with our trusted strategic partners, quick thinking on the part of Dimerco saved the day."
Dimerco also project managed the subsequent return of the cargo from the convention centre in Orlando to Tech-Long US in Duluth, Georgia.
