Move One Logistics continues to play a key role in the ongoing development of international trade and political relations between the US and Mongolia. Most recently, Move One handled the shipping of essential training equipment for the ‘Khan Quest’ military joint-operation, comprising of US, Australian, Canadian and Mongolian armed forces.

Khan Quest is officially described as an “interoperability exercise between US Marines and the Mongolian Armed Forces (MAF) with an emphasis on Peace Keeping Operations (PKO) and staff and noncommissioned officer (NCO) development.” In order for its latest stage to go ahead, Move One had to deliver five pallets of shipment, adding up to two ton in weight, to a remote site forty kilometers west of the already remote capital of Ulaanbaatar.

Transported through a multi-modal air-sea route for expediency, the shipment arrived to the training base on time, even by exacting military standards. Commenting on the move, Move One’s Regional Manager for Central Asia, Sean Kosa, said “Whilst by no means the most unusual or challenging logistics project undertaken by Move One, the shipment was highly time sensitive. We provided a same-day delivery service in response to the high priority nature of the cargo, and I am proud of our team who managed to complete the job in such a small time frame.”

Mongolia possesses some of the world’s biggest untapped reserves of copper, gold, coal and uranium and is striving to attract international investors and natural resource development companies. The impact that the realization of this mineral wealth will have on the economy and future of Mongolia is hard to overstate. Move One is instrumental in facilitating the entry of these investment and development groups into this challenging market, thus helping to shape that economic destiny. With an office in Ulaanbaatar and another to open shortly in Oyu Tolgoi, Move One is actively involved in multiple aspects of Mongolia’s economic development, using all resources at its disposal to assist with freight forwarding and logistics services.
