The early months of 2021 have bought many laurels to New Silk Road Network’s member Anil Mantra Logistix Pvt. Ltd. Early this year, their Managing Director Sunila Yadav had received the prestigious ‘Business Leader of the Year’ Award. In the past two weeks, Anil Mantra received two more awards from AsiaOne Magazine, a premier media house covering news and analysis from various industries, including the business world.
In a quirky experiment this month, New Silk Road Network requested Marcel Grätz from Alexander Global Logistics (AGL) to document his move to China to head their new office. Marcel Grätz will be running the local office of AGL in Shanghai while living and working in China. In his blog, he shared informative, funny, interesting, frustrating and at times, mind-boggling experiences. As a German forwarder, these are his chronicles to the wondrous East!
Here are some excerpts from his blog…
Have you ever wondered what is the connection between logistics and classical opera? If you are thinking not much, then think again. Recently, New Silk Road Network’s member Spedman Logistics moved an entire opera set from one end of Europe to another.
China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has performed tremendously well in connecting China to Europe. In this initiative, the biggest beneficiaries have been Central Asian countries, Central and Eastern European countries etc. Many countries have also expanded their trade into the Chinese market and forged stable connections with the East. Parallelly, China has also invested in many of these countries to boost their economies and transform them into long-standing partners.
Recently, Alexander Global Logistics (AGL), a founding member of New Silk Road Network (NSRN), was contracted to transport 20 excavators from China to Germany. Upon receiving the request, the AGL team in Germany turned to Columbia Pro-Rail Transport Services, also a founding member of NSRN, and Hyundai Glovis. The Columbia Pro Rail team organized the pre-carriage and transport under FOB terms from Changsha to Shanghai using four oversized trucks.
Recently, Sunila Yadav, Managing Director of Anil Mantra Pvt Ltd, a member of the New Silk Road Network, won the prestigious 'Business Leader of the Year' award.
