LogiBCN Corporate Composition and Services
Presentation of Logistics Solutions
Welcome everyone. My name is Valeria Moreno, and I am going to present the services we offer at LogiBCN. Our primary objective is to examine all company processes to determine where we can be more efficient.
Good communication with other departments is very important to make our jobs easier.
Our methodology focuses on cross-docking because it is efficient and faster. Some of our services depend on the client's needs and can include consolidation, deconsolidation, picking, or break-bulk, etc.
We also prepare all the documents necessary for customs clearance.
Transport Challenges in Megacities
Urban Mobility and Environmental Impact
To establish a good transport structure in megacities, it is important to clearly understand the problems and find the best solutions.
Firstly, in megacities, finding parking is very difficult and tolls can be expensive. Traffic is often stopped by many cars for a long time every day, and vehicles pollute significantly.
It is important to implement transport systems that take these local factors into consideration. We should reduce car usage and increase the use of public transport, such as the underground, trains, and other transit systems.
