Background : A renowned Broadway musical was touring the Middle East when their logistics team tasked us with delivering their stage and concert equipment to the next venue. Following the conclusion of the final show, we had 72 hours to transport the cargo to its next destination. Solution : Our team began sourcing an aircraft capable of accommodating the odd-sized stage equipment. We secured a Boeing 777, which transported over 65 tons of show equipment. Our team meticulously monitored the movement of the equipment from the Convention Centre to the airport, requiring strategic planning with no margin for error or delay. Going above and beyond, we arranged pre-customs clearance ahead of landing at the destination, saving considerable time. As a result, the stage was set, and the show was as spectacular as anticipated.
