Heavy-lift freight forwarding network the Project Professionals Group has started the new year strongly with the appointment of two new Project Support Members and one project forwarder.

PPG general manger Kevin Stephens said Super Rack was the new Project Support Member (PSM) in both Korea and Japan.

Super Rack developed a height-adjustable flat rack for containers in 2001 and has a worldwide reputation for using this technology for shipping companies carrying over-dimension cargoes, and also for other vessel and terminal operators.

Stephens said Transpes A. Logica Em Transportes had been appointed as the PSM member for Brazil and would also attend the PPG annual conference in Rio de Janeiro in June as a major sponsor. Transpes offers special road transport for oversize cargos, in addition to storage, loading and unloading services throughout Brazil and Mercosur.'

He said Scan Global-TransProject had been appointed as the new PPG member for central China.

Stephens said he was confident PPG would build on its successes and continue to expand its international footprint and focus on strong membership and services to clients in 2011.
