JSL Global Qatar, member to the Worldwide Project Consortium (WWPC) for Qatar, has been expanding its horizons in diamond jewelry and watches event logistics by serving as the logistics contributor for two of Doha's premier annual jewelry shows. The Doha Jewelry (DJWE) and Watches Exhibition and ASJAD are among the most grand and luxurious jewelry exhibitions in the region, showcasing exquisite collections of gold and diamond jewelry alongside high-end watches. To meet the demand for their international clients, JSL Handled QAR 52M ($14M) Diamond Logistics for that show.
A company spokesperson said: “With attendees and exhibitors from around the globe, our clientele reflects the international attraction of these events. JSL Global has been engaged with these jewelry exhibitions for more than five years, demonstrating our expertise and commitment to the industry. Our dedicated team handles all stages of the logistics process, offering customized services to each client.
Another delicate task was demonstrated by JSL Global who handled the transports of a Telescopic Suction Pipe from Bahrain to Qatar
The transportation of the Telescopic Suction Pipe (assembled) presented a unique logistical challenge, requiring meticulous planning and coordination. With dimensions of L (21M) X W (2.05M) X H (2.4M) and a weight of about 11 ton, the cargo posed challenges due to its size and weight, necessitating special equipment and careful handling.
The project involved transporting the material from Bahrain to Doha, Qatar, via Saudi Arabia, by road freight. This was undertaken for a prominent alumina refinery company in Doha, located in one of the industrial cities in Qatar. The cargo was vital for their plant operations, demanding adherence to strict timelines.
Specialized trailers, including a Long Trailer of 22 meters for cross-country shipment, were utilized, followed by a 22-meter long trailer for in-country movement to the client’s site. Challenges arose during the transportation process, notably obtaining permits for the Bahrain Causeway and undergoing X-ray scanning at the KSA border due to the cargo's length.
To meet the client's time-sensitive requirements, thorough planning was essential. Gate passes, escort approvals, and cross-loading plans were arranged precisely to ensure seamless movement and adherence to deadlines. Despite the logistical hurdles, collaborative efforts and strategic planning ensured the successful delivery of the Telescopic Suction Pipe, demonstrating the JSL Global project team´s commitment to meeting client needs under challenging circumstances.
