Rojay Limited of specialized facilities , KRL works to ensure a smooth supply chain process .
A recent demonstration of the company ’ s bespoke solutions and customer-centric specialisms involved the transportation of an AgustaWestland AW39 helicopter across the North Atlantic Ocean . KRL was approached by an agent in Brazil to assist in the FOB arrangements for the helicopter destined for a Brazilian buyer from the UK . The helicopter had been booked on a RoRo vessel loading out of Tilbury . However , KRL needed to liaise with the specialist transport company delivering the helicopter , the RoRo shipping line and the Port of Tilbury .
Arrangements were made to have a 45- inch roll trailer placed on the quay at Tilbury where the helicopter could be safely loaded , away from normal Port operations . KRL ’ s expertise was crucial in ensuring all parties were notified and kept informed so that the helicopter could be delivered and safely loaded in time to meet the vessel and before the arrival of another vessel on the quay . The company ensured everything ran smoothly and that export clearance and documentation was completed in time . KRL was also able to give real time updates to the agent in Brazil so that any issues could be resolved there and then .
These are exciting times for the business , and the recent investments and projects send out a strong signal to the marketplace about its capabilities . KRL ’ s mission is to exceed standards in the international freight and supply chain sector , and believes it is vital to invest in market-leading equipment and infrastructure to support drivers and offer the best service to customers . ■
