THE first unimodal train loaded
with 102 TEU bound for Indode Station in Ethiopia from Djibouti was facilitated by French
forwarding giant Bollore Logistics,
reports Mumbai's
Logistics Update Africa.
The cargo, belonging to one of
the clients of Bollore Logistics, is the first containerised consignment to be
transported exclusively on rail from Djibouti
to Ethiopia.
Through an agreement with Ethio-Djibouti Railways (EDR) Bollore Logistics will provide its customers with a
faster and more efficient transport solution solutions with a weekly service
from Djibouti to Indode.
The Ethio-Djibouti Rail is an
electronically powered standard gauge rail which cuts transit time between the
two countries to 15 hours compared to road transport which can take three days.
