Business Activity Ukraine and Russia: Update

April 15 2022: Following the 5th package of EU sanctions imposed upon Russia and Belarus, we now have some additional information to share.

Road Freight:

  • As per the latest EU sanctions, Russian and Belarusian trucks will be banned from entering EU countries as of April 16th, 2022.
  • There are some exceptions to this, but the ban will apply to personal effects.
  • Trucks from EU member states are still currently able to transport household goods to and from Russia. Polish and Lithuanian truckers are currently most active on this lane.
  • There is no information yet regarding Russia banning EU trucks from entering its territory, but this might obviously change.

Sea Freight:

  • Gosselin continues to route sea shipments by truck to Antwerp. Sea shipments are not an option for Russian citizens. They only have road (truck) or air as possible transportation modes. Transit time extended by 14 days or more

Air Freight:

  • Rates have doubled or tripled while capacity is (very) limited. Transit times via Istanbul or Dubai have doubled.

Storage:

  • We have sufficient capacity to store goods in Moscow (or Antwerp).

Gosselin is adjusting its supply chain options according to these further changes and restrictions, particularly the banning of Russian and Belarusian trucks. Moving rates will of course be affected, but we will continue to provide ‘live’ rates to agents, on an ongoing basis, as promptly as possible.


Thank you all for your support and cooperation during these unprecedented times.

Emergency contacts

International work experience

An international work experience

With Gosselin offices all over Europe, it’s almost impossible to know everybody. However, an international working experience can be the perfect way to get acquainted with colleagues from different countries. Roberta and Patrizio from the Italian office did just that, taking the opportunity to network and brainstorm work processes.
Road VS Rail transport

European Logistics goes Multi-modal!

Gosselin currently launched a new trial project combining the usual road transport with train groupage in Europe. It is the perfect combination between handling large volumes, less reloads, less damage risks, and focusing on sustainability at the same time.
Lasha Georgian team

Moving within the company

When Lasha approached John to offer his resignation because he wanted to leave Georgia, they sat around the table to look for a solution. At Gosselin, we do whatever we can to offer possibilities and growth to our employees.
