No Comments

ERIE, PA (October 25, 2016) - Logistics Plus Inc., a leading worldwide provider of transportation, logistics and supply chain solutions, is proud to announce that - - in addition to being a supporting sponsor - it has also been selected as an official freight forwarding partner for the 2016 Christkindlmarket held in Chicago and Naperville, Illinois. Christkindlmarket is a holiday market held annually at Daley Plaza in Chicago since 1996. The festival attracts more than one million visitors each year. For the first time, the Christkindlmarket event will also be held in Naperville, a booming suburban community just outside of Chicago.

Logistics Plus is working directly with German American Events, LLC, the organizer for the event, to provide comprehensive logistical support. Logistics Plus Germany personnel, led by Heiko Mueller, will oversee the preparation of export documentation, consolidation of goods, and the shipping of numerous containers from Germany to the United States. From there, the Logistics Plus Chicago office, managed by Christian Marz, will provide participating vendors with customs clearance, warehousing, and final delivery support.

"We are thrilled to play the role of Santa Claus for the hundreds of thousands of people that will be attending Christkindlmarket this year," said Jim Berlin, founder and CEO of Logistics Plus. "Our passion for excellence has come through once again thanks to the coordination between Christian, Heiko and their respective teams in the U.S. and Germany. Even though it's only October, Logistics Plus elves are busy working behind the scenes to coordinate the logistics for this great event."
