Posted on | by Tamishra

Trident Freight expands its warehouse capabilities and supports sustainable trade growth through advanced project cargo and bulk liquid solutions

Trident Freight, Conqueror member in Varna, Bulgaria, is stepping up its role in the region’s energy transformation by handling key logistics operations for high-tech Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) units. These advanced units weigh between 42 and 50 metric tons. They are essential components in modern energy storage systems.

By delivering end-to-end logistics for these heavy and highly sensitive cargoes, Trident Freight is directly contributing to local energy infrastructure. “We are proud to be part of projects that have such a clear impact on sustainable energy,” says Mr. Dimitar Demirov, General Manager, Trident Freight. “Reliable logistics for BESS technology helps strengthen local power networks. It also supports the global transition to greener energy sources.”

At the same time, Trident Freight is expanding its storage and bonded warehouse offerings. The company now manages a wide mix of cargo. Some shipments are small and easy to handle. Others are oversized, bulky, and far more complex. Regardless of size, the team provides value-added services like packaging, labeling, and product customization. It allows clients to meet specific market requirements without adding delays or extra transport steps.

“We want to offer more than storage space,” adds Mr. Demirov. “Our aim is to give customers flexible and efficient solutions that help them scale their businesses with confidence.”

In addition to project cargo and warehousing, Trident Freight is growing its capabilities in the bulk liquid market. The company serves as a regional representative for Bulk Liquid Solutions, a recognized manufacturer of flexitanks, FIBC bulk bags, and container liners. Through this partnership, Trident Freight performs certified flexitank installation inside 20-foot containers. This service plays a key role in the export of seed oils, vegetable fatty acids, glycerin, and similar liquid commodities.

“Working with Bulk Liquid Solutions lets us support Bulgarian exporters as they expand to new regions,” adds Mr. Demirov. “It creates new opportunities that benefit both logistics and local industry.”

Due to ongoing sanctions affecting Russian oil, Bulgaria’s LUKOIL refinery must now import crude oil from multiple global suppliers. Deliveries are arranged using large crude carriers, including Aframax, Suezmax, and even VLCC vessels. As a long-term logistics partner of LUKOIL, Trident Freight is actively involved in ship-to-ship transshipment operations, transferring up to 160,000 tons of crude oil to smaller vessels capable of entering the refinery terminal.

“This operation requires precise coordination and our team handles it with strong technical expertise,” says Mr. Demirov. “Our involvement keeps energy supply stable during a challenging period for Bulgaria’s oil sector.”

Congratulations to Conqueror Varna and all the best for their upcoming projects!

Conqueror Coimbatore handles a complex oversized mining shipment from India to Philippines

They ensured the safe and timely delivery of the heavy duty cargo for FLSmidth, overcoming several last-minute logistical challenges

Toben Logistics Solutions Private Limited, Conqueror member in Coimbatore, India, has recently completed a challenging shipment of heavy mining equipment. The cargo, a Hybrid Apron Belt (HAB) Feeder, is an essential component for bulk material handling in mining operations, manufactured by FLSmidth, a global leader in sustainable productivity solutions for the mining and cement industries.

They delivered the shipment to a project site in Davao, Philippines, following a multi-stage transport process that included land, sea, and last-mile logistics. Their team divided the massive shipment into two lots: the first comprising six containers weighing 79,230 kg, and the second with four containers totaling 59,846 kg.

Due to the cargo’s oversized nature and varied dimensions, Toben Logistics used flat racks and flatbeds for ocean transport, supported by spreader bars during the loading process to maintain balance and safety.

“The most challenging aspect of this project was the last-minute discrepancy in the cargo dimensions,” explained Vyshak Dileep Kolyiot, Executive – Sales and Marketing at Toben Logistics. “This required us to promptly redesign our handling and loading strategies. But thanks to our dedicated team and partners, we maintained deadlines and ensured the equipment arrived in perfect condition.”

Additionally, the logistics operation also included custom lashing and securing techniques during containerization, as well as reworking and repacking to adapt to the altered dimensions. Toben’s team supervised every step, from trucking the cargo from FL Smidth’s facility to the Indian port, arranging ocean freight, and managing the last-mile delivery in Davao.

“This project was a true test of our problem-solving skills and teamwork,” Vyshak added. “We are proud to have played a role in delivering such a critical component safely and efficiently, and grateful to our partners for trusting us with such a responsibility.”

Congratulations to Conqueror Coimbatore for the successful handling of the cargo and all the best for their future endeavours!
