High performing pioneer
- When in 1996 the rail link connecting the CIS with Iran was inaugurated, Chain was the first company to utilise the rail link and transport cargo by direct wagons.
- The first wagons to cross the border at Sarakhs destined for the CIS were loaded with the largest volume of wheat flour ever to be shipped from Bandar Abbas to Turkmenistan.
- Chain was the pioneer in the transport of cotton in transit from the CIS through Iran to various destinations in the Far East and the Indian subcontinent.
- Chain played an important role in supplying the people of Afghanistan during the war, once delivering the huge volume of ten thousand mega tons of wheat to our neighbouring country in distress.
- Despite the war in Afghanistan, our company managed to fulfil all its commitments in a timely manner. For this impressive performance, Chain International received a Certificate of Service from the United Nations World Food Programme.
- These and other comparable feats have given us a top ranking position in transit transportation.
- Numerous awards from the Iranian Ministry of Roads & Transportation” and the “Port & Shipping Organisation” give proof of the Chain Group’s outstanding performance.
