The Team's Board Report - Mainfreight

As airfreight becomes a bigger sphere of
influence in our business, we get the chance to
handle some very interesting cargo.
We recently moved a helicopter to
Cambodia. We visited the shipper and
explained that:
1) It would require a freighter aircraft.
2) There were no direct flights into Cambodia.
3) We would require that the helicopter needed
to be broken down. Blades removed, stand
removed and tail removed, to be suitable for
airfreight.
Despite heavy competition and incorrect
information supplied to the shipper (by
our competitors), Mainfreight International
came through with the logistic solution. The
Helicopter was dismantled as per our request. It
was uplifted on Malaysian
Airlines Freighter to Kuala
Lumpur.
A helicopter pilot from Australia arrived in
Kuala Lumpur to fly the Helicopter to its final
destination, Cambodia.
Congratulations Grant Joyce (MFI Melbourne)
on an exciting win on an Export Air freight
Consignment.
Well done Team - THINK AIR FREIGHT it’s
exciting.
These type of activities show the varied and
extensive services offered by your International
team in Australia.
Mainfreight International also recently
participated in the Seed Industry Association
Global Conference which was held in New
Zealand. We had team members from the USA,
New Zealand and Australia attend, and we were
also a major sponsor to the event.
The Helicopter travelled
with the flight
engineer who had to
reassemble the chopper
at the old International
Airport hangars in Kuala
Lumpur.
