In Ashgabat, a working meeting was held between representatives of the Turkmen Logistics Association and the Chinese logistics company Shandong Hi-Speed Qilu Eurasia Railway Logistics Co., which is the main logistics operator in Shandong Province of the People's Republic of China.
The Chinese delegation was led by Lu Junfeng, who is the head of the company's representative office in the Republic of Uzbekistan and simultaneously the head of the branch in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The company is mainly engaged in cargo transportation by rail and road, and has its own representative offices in many countries around the world.
During the exchange of views at the meeting, it was noted that due to the convenient geographical location of Turkmenistan and its developing transit potential, the volume of cargo transportation through the country has been growing rapidly in recent years.
Thus, Turkmenistan is becoming an important transport and logistics hub on the New Silk Road of the 21st century. To increase the attractiveness of the transit corridors passing through the territory of our country and to attract additional transit cargo flows, customs procedures have been automated, and the use of modern equipment during customs inspections ensures uninterrupted transportation of vehicles through the customs posts of Turkmenistan.
Representatives of the Turkmen Logistics Association informed the Chinese side that Turkmen transport and forwarding companies - members of the Association deliver cargo to various countries of the world and in their work focus on international standards in this field, provide high-quality and reliable services and have a well-deserved business reputation.
As a result of the meeting, the parties noted that the establishment of business partnerships between Turkmen cargo carriers and the Shandong Hi-Speed Qilu Eurasia Railway Logistics Co. is of mutual interest and meets the development of the comprehensive strategic partnership between Turkmenistan and the People's Republic of China.
