Airfreight Award NomineeFracht is reaching out and taking on new territory!

RAIL/ ROAD/ AIR

Our teams worked tirelessly this year to

ensure that we met deadlines & exceeded

expectations! Every office and team worked

together to effectively and efficiently meet

our customers needs across the country

and around the globe! Check out some of

the highlighted moves from this quarter.

This year, Fracht’s rail fleet of 8 new generation heavy

duty railcars got much bigger! Our fleet is now at an

astonishing 67 railcars. We added a new 12-axle car to

our Fracht-owned fleet, and formed a new partnership

with another car owner and their 20-axle Schnabel car.

The additional 57 cars are part of an owned/leased

fleet, which Fracht USA will manage as part of our own

fleet for our customer! We are thrilled for this growth

and excited to see what new opportunities we find.

HighlightedMoves of 2019

In early December, Fracht’s own rail team loaded

this shiftable Schnabel railcar with a 650,000 lb

transformer from Europe at the Port of Houston.

It made it’s way to a jobsite in Arkansas with ease!

Traveling from Antwerp to Winnipeg,

these two transformers made their way to the

Manitoba Hydro Substation in late November.

They were offloaded via Jack & Slide and were

transported to their destination successfully.

Our trucking division has been hard at work this year to bring our customers

the best possible service for their trucking needs.

We are thrilled for all of the great things we have accomplished this year

and are excited for 2020! Check out these awesome photos of some large

cargo we’ve moved this year!

Chartering Antonov’s has become a common occurrence here at Fracht

USA! In 2019 alone, Fracht USA chartered SEVEN of these massive aircrafts.

These photos depict our latest Antonov move in November. This 75 ton

rotor was loaded in Charlotte, North Carolina and made its journey all

the way to Australia, where the Fracht Australia team took over and

successfully delivered the rotor to the customer without any problems!

there have been some notable events

that deserve recognition!

60 turkeys to Ekklesia Miami, a local church

organization that held a turkey drive to assist

families in need. These turkeys provided 60

families with Thanksgiving dinner! Great job,

Fracht Miami!

Atlanta, a cuisine tasting event in Atlanta, held by

HOLIDAY TOY DRIVE IN HOUSTON

Fracht Houston held a holiday toy drive this year,

collecting hundreds of dollars’ worth of new toys

for a local women & children’s shelter. Mothers

were able to obtain gifts for their children, with

peace of mind knowing that they would have

gifts on Christmas morning. Thank you to all of the

employees in Houston that stepped up and gave

to children in need.
