Logistics Plus was once again a proud sponsor of the NDIA Swing for Freedom Golf Invitational held in Washington, D.C. The annual golf outing is hosted by the Washington, D.C. chapter of the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) and benefits the USO-Metro. Since 1941, the United Service Organization has served as the vital bridge between Americans and their military service members.
As seen in the image below, Ryan Markiewicz, Blaine Kurtz, and Mike Callan (from L-R) represented Logistics Plus in the outing. The team tied for second place by shooting 12 under par. More importantly, the team had a great time supporting this vital cause.

Logistics Plus Chief Operations Officer (COO) Yuriy Ostapyak was a guest speaker for a recent Rotary Club of Erie meeting. The topic of the discussion was titled ‘Supply Chain Twisted.’ Yuriy talked about his background, the growth of Logistics Plus, the company’s commitment to Erie, PA, current supply chain challenges, and more.
Yuriy commented on his familiarity with the Rotary Club. “I have a great deal of respect for the Rotary Club. When I first came to the United States, I was a Rotary Club exchange student in high school. The club provides many great opportunities, and it was great to see so many familiar faces.”
About the Rotary Club
Rotary is a global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change – across the globe, in our communities, and ourselves. From the organization’s earliest days, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives.
Just a quick note to acknowledge the outstanding service supplied by Tony Pachel with his follow up on e-mails, bills of lading, requests for pricing and his amazing pursuit of late freight forwarders. It is a pleasure to work with him.

The Logistics Plus Project Cargo team completed an air charter project from Brno, Czech Republic, to Karaman, Turkey. Our team handled a 72 metric ton (158,730 lbs.) steam turbine and its accessories using an AN-124 aircraft specifically designed to handle oversized cargo. The cargo was transported from Brno airport to Istanbul airport and ultimately safely delivered to the job site in Turkey by truck.
Logistics Plus Global Projects Director Bahadir Erdil commented on this project. “This air charter took an extreme amount of teamwork to complete. By constantly communicating with all parties involved, we were able to get the job done efficiently. I couldn’t be more proud.”
