Dear reader,

Despite hard and tuff times presently, the life of a forwarder is always hard and tuff so in a way we are all used to it. In tuff times we take on new challenges to maintain our scope to always be there for our customers.

Like the past months were a number of new customers turned themselves to us to start using our services and as stated by them, “we strongly believe in your philosophy to act quick towards requests and always try to find solutions”.

These are all nice words and we are happy to know that our customers do trust, like what we do to develop.

The attached pics are taken on our backyard and some shows that despite present situation we are going towards spring and a little easier life hopefully.

To you dear reader, we are happy that you constantly visit our FB and WEB-pages and in particular right now when so many of you are working from home or just isolated yourself from the outside world. This gives you something to read and study.

Thanks for your continuously support and trust.

Stay safe………….from all of us.

Once again we were challenged to handle extreme dimensional cargo.

Weight 15 metric tons each and 8,60 x 3,26 x 3,75 meters (LxWxH).

Considering the free height in Sweden (4,50 meter) this cargo was forced to be picked-up by using a lowboy trailer and escorts to get it as close as possible to the port-gate. We brought the cargo to one of our partners where we discharged and reloaded the cargo on to flatrack containers.

The bathrooms modules were lashed down to the flats with about 200 tons pressure on each. While travelling last distance to port we were about 5,70 meter high.

Result ?
Well all well perform by all involved and the cargo is in place for being shipped out of Gothenburg by tomorrow.
Thank you to all involved and who made this work possible for us and our customer.

Another great challenge we performed by Team BJORA / Borlind and it’s partners.

To you dear reader, welcome with your challenges we promise to find solutions to your needs.

Con Gratulations to the forth CHL-victory 2020.

Our local team in Gothenburg, Sweden

Week no 5 of 2020.

A short and sweet business trip to Montreal in Canada. We were invited to spend a week with our (since July 2019) new agent in the Americas. The beautiful city of Montreal offered us various weather with everything from cold temperatures like minus 17 C in the mornings to approx. plus 3 C and snowfall.

So many things were dealt with such as approx. 40 individual meetings with key-crew and management as well as a general presentation to abut 45 people about Sweden and Scandinavia.

Last but not least we offered them all a special treatment with

“Swedish Fika”.

One evening we also had the pleasure in attending a hockey game between the Canadians and the Capitals. Hockey night in Canada is a very special happening so we enjoyed to the full.

Like always time flies and after four days it was time to say goodbye to next time and to go on the plane to return to Sweden.

All impressions we got during our trip was indeed great and we can see that our agent has a great set up and is indeed one of the fastest growing transportation companies on the American continent.

Thanks to you all for entrusted us to be your agent in Scandinavia.

Thursday evening 2020-01-16.

Magical date for us all, as we invested in time / money for an HLR = Heart-Lung-Resque education in our office.
The entire crew was present and we were given the possibility to practice eventual scenario’s like if a person is getting in to a cardiac arrest as well as as if a person simply can not bread by himself.

Two hours was invested and we was also shown how to use a Defibrillator if bad things occur in our area. The intention is to get our entire group of companies to a common education and awareness of how to act if worst comes to worst.

For you our customers, note not only cargo needs to be handled in a correct way, also human beings needs the correct treatment so now we are also educated for this.

This is how we work, as one unit and regardless of situation we always act together for making things as good as we ever can.

We are proud of this and the Certificate hanging on our wall is well proof of that we know what is expected from us.

Dear reader,
Gothenburg is preparing for winter and Christmas.

Past week we have had visitors in from our (since this summer) new agent on the American continent. A lot of fruitful discussions and future has been discussed and also a few customers has been visited.

We also had the opportunity to invite our agent to one of Swedish most traditional meals namely the Swedish…
“Jul-Bord” = Christmas buffet.

Well we all enjoyed the visit and together with this agent we are sure to reach new levels in our aim to please , and as always behind all global systems and efforts it is the people behind it. The team that we do work together with is just what we want. People with knowledge and who are willing to go the extra miles for getting the jobs properly done for our customers.

We do look forward to a developng and challenging 2020.

So dear Reader and Follower,

The fall 2019 is almost over, we are entering into the wintertime with all that this can and will bring. The first truck from our new supplier of fuel has delivered the earlier informed about environmental-friendly fuel to us.
All arrangements and focus for us on the environment is now in full bloom in our entire organization. This is of course also valid among our partners, for making sure that we also in the future will have our Four Seasons here on earth.

The pictures shown is of course on our beautiful city and also on our own backyard plus one of our closest vendors. If we all do what we need to do, we will be successful and we shall all remember that we only have one world so lets do what we can to promote the environment.

In about 4 – 5 weeks we all might meet Santa and provided that we all done our hard work and been nice there might be gifts to us all.

This is the gift we have chosen to give to us all and the environment.

Dear reader;

Saturday 26th of October the entire team gathered outside our office at 06.45 to go by car South in Sweden to Osterlen.
We booked ourselves for a two day conference and in Swedish called “TILLSAMMANS HELG”. On the agenda was a two hour meeting to discuss our future and plan our activities further.
Then a championship in “BOULE”

The host for this event was RAVLUNDA BRANNERI and Mr Christer Nylander with crew.
All of us felt so extremely welcome and everything was a true pleasure, the environment, the hotel, the rooms and last but not least the food.

The weekend went quick and a lot of new experiences and feelings gained by us all. The time spent together was exactly what we needed. Outside our own world, enjoying the company of each other and to share a lot of laugh’s and some good drinks. We wish at this point say thank you to all crew for spending your time at this event and we are certain that this will continue to take us forward and getting ready to take on new challenges.

To you dear customer, friend and partner.
This is how we plan our future by spending time together and to evaluate our own performances compared to the demands we have from our dear customers.

TEAMWORK, UNDERSTANDING AND INTEREST.

Welcome to continue to challenge us, we are ready.

Dear reader,
Team BJORA / Borlind takes next step in to the future,

Daily all of us can read about various enviromental changes and that we need to take better care of our planet. As such we have decided after studies of various products to change our present fuel for our machines that serves you and us in our warehouse.

We will effective 2019-11-01 replace our present diesel to a much more enviromental friendly fuel namely ECOPAR. EcoPar A is then a synthetic paraffin oil, 100% based on residual gas, which gives radically cleaner emissions than diesel & also has a lot of other benefits.

• Meets, as the only environmentally friendly alternative, the diesel standard EN590, with all  engine guarantees valid regardless

• Can never form a bacterium in a tank – guarantees safe operation & especially interesting if you run seasonal operations

• Has a storage guarantee of up to 10 years

• Has a higher energy value than the alternatives, which usually means a lower consumption

• Reduces emissions of carcinogenic substances by as much as 90%!

• Reduces emissions of climate-negative substances, carbon dioxide by about 40% & nitrogen dioxide by about 60%!

• Is completely non-toxic to all aquatic organisms – if the accident occurs, the Emergency Rescue Service does not need to get called in, nature takes care of the eventual leak with its own resources

• Contains no soot & particles, which is beneficial for both filter & engine oil and the engine system as a whole

• Is a little fatter than diesel & therefore lubricates the engine better

• Is odorless

Our reasons for this is several but the most important once is that we wish to continue being an innovative company, always looking out for possibilities to try out new methods in serving our customers and partners.

We also wish to be in the lead when it comes to the enviromental progresses and to make sure that our staff as well as our customers cargo is handled in correct ways and with the best possible machines that has best and lowest effect on our enviroment. 

Dear customer, we say thank you for your support and state that you can asure we as your local serviceprovider do what we can to make sure that your needs are looked after properly and that we also and continously study what can be changed to be a innovative company with aims on service and enviroment.
