The Logistics Plus (LP) Poland project cargo team has been busy since the start of the year, completing several projects across the country. Listed below (and highlighted in the video) are some of the most recent projects handled by LP Poland.
LP Poland transported a module with dimensions of 30m x 4.55m x 4.60m that weighed 65 tons. The module was transported through Scandinavia to the South of Italy. The permit process took four weeks due to the oversized dimensions, and the team battled unfavorable weather conditions during the move.
LP Poland teamed up with Drewes Logistics BV to transport two presses from Belgium to Poland. The max weight of a single unit was 58 tons.
LP Poland transported three over-dimensional roll trailers from Poland to Mexico. The team arranged the road transportation, permits and escorts, re-loading in Hamburg, and then ocean transport to Altamira, Mexico.
LP Poland transported an oversized skid (4.55m tall) from Poland to Denmark. Due to the local height limitations, some of the road sections weren’t suitable for the height of the cargo. This forced the team to take a different route through a backroad with a police escort. The shipment reached the job site within three nights.
The Logistics Plus (LP) Turkey Project Cargo team successfully completed a transformers project from Turkey to Saudi Arabia. The LP Turkey team handled six sets of transformers, with the heaviest ones weighing 234 metric tons each. In total, 3,360 CBM worth of cargo was transported to Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
Logistics Plus Global Projects Director Bahadir Erdil shared his thoughts on this project. “I couldn’t be more proud of the LP Turkey team. We’ve shown that we are capable of handling anything our clients throw at us,” He added, “We’ve become a world-class Project Cargo provider, and we’ll continue to build momentum moving forward.”

The war in Ukraine has caused immense damage to the country’s infrastructure and economy. The World Bank estimates the cost of rebuilding Ukraine will be $411 billion over the next decade.
The Ukrainian government has developed a plan for recovery and reconstruction that includes the following priorities:
Repairing damaged infrastructure. This includes roads, bridges, hospitals, power plants, and energy distribution grids. Providing humanitarian assistance. This includes food, water, shelter, and medical care for those who have been displaced by the war. Creating jobs and stimulating the economy. This includes providing financial assistance to businesses and individuals and investing in infrastructure projects. Promoting good governance. This includes fighting corruption and building a transparent and accountable government.
The international community has also pledged to support Ukraine’s recovery and reconstruction. The United States has committed $2.5 billion in aid, and the European Union has pledged €500 million.
Additionally, the U.S.-Ukraine Business Council, established in 1995, and of which Logistics Plus is a member, is advancing U.S. companies’ trade and investment interests in Ukraine and advocating for measures to improve bilateral trade and investment conditions. In support of its mission, the Council works closely with other organizations interested in supporting a growing commercial relationship between the United States and Ukraine.
The rebuilding of Ukraine will be a long and difficult process, but ensuring the country’s future is essential. With the international community’s support, Ukraine can rebuild its economy, create jobs, and provide a better future for its citizens.
