Total Movements, member to the Worldwide Project Consortium (WWPC) in India, reported about a Door-to-Port Movement of 8 units of Transformers, weighing between 50 ton to 150 ton, and Accessories and Oil Drums from a factory on India's west coast for the Tanzania Electricity Power Project.
A company spokesperson explained: “Our scope of activity included the entirety from picking up the consignment at the supplier's works in India through unloading it at the Tanzanian discharge port.

• Managing the customs and port operations in India during the festival holidays
• Ensuring document preparation in close coordination with the customer to fulfil Indian and Tanzanian customs rules

• Daily check of the pressure levels in each main unit and regular reporting to the customer
• 24x7 cooperation with every stakeholder involved
