Many Miles, Many Smiles as the EMP Container Reaches Buccama

many miles, many smiles as EMP container reaches Buccama

The lifesaving delivery was supported by a partnership between EMP and two respected businesses; Clyde based marine engineering experts the Malin Group and international logistics company, Bertling Logistics. Both businesses volunteered the resources needed to send the supplies many miles across land and sea to the gates of the Health Centre in Buccama.

Malin Group and Bertling collaborated to plan and project manage all aspects of the transportation project, ensuring the cargo was safely and securely delivered on time. Rapid Export and Clyde Corrosion Control also provided invaluable support through the wrapping and packing of the resources, and painting of the container, respectively.

John Macsween, Managing Director of the Malin Group, said:

“When we were approached by the team at EMP, we knew that we had to help. We were delighted to provide expertise in the transportation of the cargo, and I am proud of our staff for coming forward to support this fantastic charity. It is also a great opportunity to work with one of our trusted clients, Bertling Logistics and build on our existing partnership – and demonstrate how the maritime industry can come together to have a positive impact. And we are so proud of our fellow Glaswegians who helped to fill it!”
