I am a Customs Broker, so my focus is obtaining release, not logistics. It is very comforting to know I can dispatch MBR and the delivery will be executed efficiently.

Kandel Transport ran a reefer food load for us. Carrier had good equipment and maintained temp throughout transit. Electronic tracking was turned on by the driver. They provided good communication throughout the trip. Great job by this carrier.
