GEODIS to exhibit at annual Power-Gen event, Power-Generation International

Global supply chain operator GEODIS is exhibiting at POWER-GEN International, from December 8 – 10, in the Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The event is part of the Power Generation Week, co-located with Renewable Energy World Conference & Expo North America, NUCLEAR POWER International, COAL-GEN and GenForum.

Power-Gen International is the largest, most respected power generation event in the world – the ideal venue to showcase GEODIS’ expertise in this segment and to discover new, cutting-edge innovations and trends in power generation. During the 3-day event, attendees have the opportunity to meet experts of GEODIS ‘Industrial Projects activity, a global unit of the company’s Freight Forwarding network, specialized in project cargo operations, freight forwarding, customs clearance service, planning and execution of turnkey project solutions, coordinating complex out-of-gauge cargo transport and inland logistics.

The Industrial Project segment of GEODIS serves a range of global players in the areas of power and renewable energy, including the execution of a record-breaking airfreight shipment of wind turbine blades from China to Scandinavia and leading the first rail freight solution for a similar blade delivery in Europe. The company also managed the transport of the 16 lock gates for the Panama Canal expansion project, with the final gates arriving last year.

“With Regional Power Segment Leader in the U.S., Julie Shafer, and George Abreu, Director of Industrial Projects for North America, in attendance along with myself, we are eager to engage with other experts in the field of power generation in Las Vegas,” says Mikael Pedersen, Global Renewables Segment Director, “The event allows us to ensure we are in tune with our client’s needs and most of all, continue to provide reliable, transparent, and personalized solutions for the power industry.”

GEODIS will be exhibiting at Booth No. 9906, from 8 – 10 December, 2015, whereby attendees at the exhibition will have the opportunity to meet with both Global and U.S.-based teams in the Power Segment of the Industrial Projects division.
