A Afghan Container Transport Company (ACT-CO), established in 1974 in Kabul and one of the very few offices to remain despite the difficulties of the past 12 years, has successfully moved a 32 ton transformer from Aqina on the border of Turkmenistan and Afghanistan. On the surface, that sounds simple enough. But the task was far from easy! The most preferred route in Afghanistan is via Gateway Bandar Abbas. Since cargo does not go by rail in country, trucking is the only alternative mode. When it arrives Afghanistan, the cargo is off-loaded and then parceled on to trucks Since 2001, ACTCO has been one of the pioneers in providing door to door delivery service to various NGO's, UN Agencies, the US Army and the NATO Forces. The company's strength lies in having its own team in Afghanistan of experienced local logisticians.
