GEFCO Russia, a recognized expert in multi-modal supply chains, and Fenix LLC, the owner and operator of the Bronka multi-functional sea terminal in Saint-Petersburg, have signed a contract for the handling and storage of Volvo cars.

GEFCO Russia has cooperated with Volvo Car Russia since 2010. In addition to managing automotive logistics, GEFCO Russia also transports heavy construction and industrial equipment, spare parts and components. Under the terms of the new contract, GEFCO Russia will receive Volvo vehicles from ferries in Port Bronka, handle customs clearance and track onward delivery by car transporters throughout the country in a one-stop service. As a contractor, Fenix will be responsible for storing the cars until handling at the port is completed.

 

Our cooperation with Fenix under the Volvo Car Russia contract is not GEFCO Russia’s first experience with Bronka Port.

Our software enables automatic document control, passenger car acceptance, issuance and maintenance processes, which are tailored to meet the needs of car manufacturers.”
