KEY AREAS OF BUSINESS

A key competency at Paccon is our project cargo experience. Whether it’s a one-off shipment or a long term project, we are well versed in understanding the dynamics of project shipments whether it is taking control ex suppliers works and delivering to door at destination or acting as a local partner for the lead project managers.

Africa as an emerging market with a long history of little or no infrastructural development spending is always an interesting place for business. With the variety of challenges involved in projects in Africa, it’s good to know that you’re dealing with a local company with African roots and on the ground experience.

No two projects are the same and adaptability is important as is assembling and managing the various 3rd party sub-contractors – from cargo surveyors, to abnormal transport operators and border agents.

An often overlooked aspect of international trade, marine insurance is the not the expensive luxury that many cargo owners believe it to be. In fact marine insurance should be considered as a defacto part of your international trading or shipping activities even if it is your own equipment being moved to a contract site in some far of land as opposed to a commercial sale of goods.
