A stable provider of transport and logistics services even in times of the COVID-19 crisis

  • April 28, 2020

The international transport company PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL (formerly Advanced World Transport or AWT), which is part of the PKP CARGO Group, a leading logistics operator in Europe, continues to provide its customers, along with its subsidiaries AWT Rekultivace or AWT ROSCO, full services despite the COVID-19 crisis in Europe.

Thanks to the professional and responsible approach of our employees, and to our stable operating background and experience, all companies in the PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL Group are providing fast and comprehensive transport and logistics services or reclamation and construction work fully and without any restrictions.

At the same time, the transport companies in the group are offering their free capacity to new potential customers, both in the transport, logistics, rental and maintenance of railway wagons and locomotives and in the construction activities of subsidiary AWT Rekultivace or the cleaning of wagons, tankers, etc., done by AWT ROSCO.

“In spite of the constant spread of the coronavirus in Europe and the associated limitations of varying degree, our know-how and many years of experience allow us to remain a stable carrier and a provider of other services for our customers. We have feedback from our current clients that they really value our reliable services at this difficult time. And we can guarantee them that we will continue this trend. I would like to thank our employees for their adherence to our measures and their everyday work, especially our frontline operational staff,” says Maciej Walczyk, Chairman of the Board of Directors PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL.

At the same time, the PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL Group supports the long-term aims of the European Union, especially today, namely the transfer of goods from congested roads to railways.

In the context of the COVID-19 epidemic in Europe, companies that need to ship their goods quickly and efficiently are having problems with road transport because of the strict border measures in place. It is here that the company sees a great opportunity for rail transport, which, despite the epidemiological situation in Europe, is running virtually unrestricted and is often faster than truck transport. Less passengers on trains also means more room for rail cargo during the day.
