The Logistics Plus (LP) Aero team successfully completed an urgent air charter project from St. John’s, Canada, to Georgetown, Guyana, on September 8th, 2024. The team was tasked with transporting oil production equipment for a key client in the oil industry. The air charter was swiftly organized using an AN-12 aircraft, chosen for its optimal capacity considering the cargo’s overall dimensions (533x255x186 CM) and weight (4250 kg) while also being the most cost-effective solution.
Despite the challenging weather conditions, the LP Aero™ team meticulously planned the operation, ensuring the cargo was delivered safely and on schedule. Photos from this project can be seen below.

Logistics Plus is proud to announce it has officially received SOC 2 Type 1 certification for its eShipPlus and MyLogisticsPlus systems. SOC 2 is increasingly becoming the “must-have” compliance requirement that technology companies need today. As businesses leverage the services of third-party providers, SOC 2 compliance is becoming necessary for a wide variety of organizations.
Logistics Plus worked with TrustNet, a leading provider of CyberSecurity and Attestation services, to produce the SOC report. This requires an examination sufficient to satisfy the independent service auditor’s professional standards for testing the design and operational effectiveness of controls. SOC 2 compliance is critical in satisfying the needs of a global audience. The SOC 2 criteria are established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and focus on confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information systems.
The Logistics Plus SOC 2 Security Type 1 report is available upon request to help you and your auditors understand the Logistics Plus controls established to support data security, availability, confidentiality, privacy, and more. Please contact us to request a copy.
