Challenge

There was no bigger event on Earth than the London 2012 Olympic Games. So imagine dismantling a large part of it and shipping it over to Dubai. That’s exactly what we did in support of the World Parachuting Championships.

Process

Here at Allseas, we’re proud to have provided the logistics for a leading events company involved in setting up the Olympics. We were equally excited to play our part in helping dismantle and ship the event’s exhibition halls. We provided the logistics across a wide range of cargo from exhibition tents, to stages to seating. Its destination was Dubai, for the World Parachuting Championships.

Outcome

The shipment, in excess of 100 teu, was moved throughout September and October. Our part in the project came to a conclusion in November, in plenty of time for successful championships – a spectacular event in a spectacular location.
