Delivering Exceptional Results in a Complex Roadshow Project

Talk to anyone who works trade shows and they’ll tell you: All they want is a hassle-free trade show experience. When a client in Brazil came to us needing to transport oversized doors to multiple trade shows in the U.S., we accepted the challenge to create that smooth, easy experience for them. 

 

The oversized doors needed to be transported from Brazil to the United States within a tight timeframe for trade shows at three different centers, including Las Vegas, New York, and Miami.

The Hassle-Free Trade Show Experience Hinged on This

The success of the project hinged on timely delivery and efficient coordination. The cargo had to clear customs and be transported through multiple stages, so careful coordination was essential. Any delays could have resulted in lost sales and a damaged reputation.

Vector’s commitment to transparent communication ensured that PVT Doors was always aware of the project’s progress in real-time. This was crucial because PVT Doors needed to know where their door was at all times in order to set up their booths and be at public trade shows in Las Vegas, New York, and Miami. Regular updates on key milestones, timing, and next steps helped to build trust and provide confidence to our client as they focused on creating an unforgettable booth for everyone attending the conferences.

Tackling the Intricate Task of Multi-Exhibition Logistics

PVT Doors needed to ship their oversized cargo from Brazil to the US within a strict time frame to exhibit at a series of trade shows. Failure to meet this deadline could put their sales strategy at risk and impact their company’s growth plans. The logistics process involved multiple transportation modes, complex customs procedures, and a global team that needed to work in perfect synchronization. From a 30,000-foot view, there were many things that could’ve gone wrong and threatened the hassle-free trade show experience our client was counting on.

The client sought a reliable logistics partner with the expertise to manage this intricate project and ensure the cargo’s timely arrival. Vector Global Logistics was chosen for its proven experience in handling time-sensitive logistics projects and its unwavering commitment to client satisfaction.
