PPG general manager Kevin Stephens said the appointments recognised the importance of the Middle East and Africa as regional and global distribution and transhipment hubs.
Yamintrans, based in Damascus, is the new member in Syria with Horus Shipping & Transport S.A.E, with its headquarters in Cairo, appointed to represent the PPG in Egypt.
“These appointments further expand the PPG network throughout the Middle East and Africa and offer clients proven expertise in project logistics and petrochemical logistics,” Mr Stephens said.
“Having a strong network in both the Middle East and Africa is critical for our members in other parts of the world where manufacturers demand a reliable pathway that ensures safe delivery of plant and equipment.”
The PPG is now represented by 140 member offices in 93 countries.
The network’s annual conference will be held in Antwerp from June 30 to July 3 and has attracted 115 registrations.
Conference sponsors include the Port of Antwerp, Rickmers-Linie GmbH; Beluga Chartering GmbH; The Port of Corpus Christi Authority; Coli Shipping & Transport N.V (Belgium); Sea-Concert (Thailand); TransProject LLC (USA); Sahil Freight Express (India); Polytra N.V. (Belgium); and Quebec Stevedoring.
The Antwerp Hilton in the Groenplaats, in the heart of the old city, is the conference venue.
The next Certificate of Achievement in Project Cargo Management course will be in Houston from October 14-15 at the George R. Brown Convention Center.
The project cargo training course was designed to fast track skills that otherwise could take many years to acquire and had been developed at the request of industry representatives who recognized the international skills shortage in the heavy-lift freight forwarding sector.
