Quantum Logistics chartered an Antonov AN124-100 aircraft, to attend an export that required single lot shipment and short lead time.
The total weight and cubic meters of equipments were 70 tons and 545 m3.

Robison Gasperi, the company's executive director, explains that the demand just popped up, and it took only one day for Quantum to present the solution and sign the Charter Agreement.

The company also was hired to carry out the whole logistics management in Brazil - storage and road transport to Viracopos International Airport, in Campinas/SP.
An exclusive fleet of 14 sider trailers was used in the operation, which shows the dimension of the aircraft's cargo capacity.

According to Gasperi, "the customers in Brazil and abroad choose Quantum in complex operations like this, as we always conduct our work seriously, we have credibility and a team built to serve well, no matter the efforts. When a company's team is thrilled by its clients' businesses, the result is absolute”, completes the director.
