As the appointed logistics provider for the Gumball brand, Transcar Projects were partnered with the rally organisers to help them achieve numerous challenges each year. The pinnacle of this to date was the charter of 3 x AN-124 aircraft to transport over 125 super cars, including USD$ 1.5 mio Bugatti Veyrons and Maclaren Mercedes from the UK to Salt Lake City in the USA, via Bangkok. All this was achieved within a 6 day period with careful planning and an on the ground team at each location.

Transcar Projects were awarded the turnkey logistics contract in partnership with another global logistics contractor. This world record setting contract required the full turnkey control of over 2 mio Frts from globally sourced locations at levels never seen before. At peak, the JV was shipping over 120,000 Frts a month, sourced from over 30 locations, consolidated for shipment in 6 key global hubs and then shipped into one point (Ras Laffan, Qatar). The project was a huge success with exclusive use of our Transfreight tracking system to schedule every single nut and bolt on the contract.

This huge 1.5 Mio Frt project was secured in conjunction with our long term Japanese partners for a large consortium of Japanese, Korean and French EPC contractors. This complex project had operating centres in each key location and required extensive resourcing within each point, as well as in our London office and Vietnam.

Transcar Projects were asked to assist with an urgent charter requirement to get three large reels of sub-sea unbylicals from Denmark and the UK to Singapore, in South East Asia. We quickly sourced a coaster and HL vessel option that ensured they were consolidated in the load port for the Heavy Lift Vessel and were then delivered within the tight timeframe, without damage and ahead of schedule, which resulted in one very happy partner and their client.

As a result of the continued success of our partnership in Japan, Transcar Projects and its Japanese partners were awarded the huge 700,000 Frt Barzan project in Qatar. The contract required extensive knowledge of the specialist duty exemption processes in Qatar as well as the movement of large and heavy cargo through the port of Ras Laffan. Our proven track record on the Pearl GTL project as well as our local presence in Qatar proved to be invaluable contributors to the Project’s logistical success.
