March 14, 2024 (MLN): Under the guidance of the National Logistics Cell (NLC) and Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), Pakistan has initiated Reefer Truck Transit to export fruits to Russia via a nearly six-thousand-kilometer land route.

According to the latest news update provided by the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting yesterday, sixteen trucks from the National Logistics Cell (NLC) carrying Kinos arrived in two Russian cities.

The truck reached Russia in eighteen days via Iran and Azerbaijan instead of Afghanistan. Earlier, Pakistan used to export Kinos to Russia by sea which took months to reach the destination.

During reefer truck transit, the temperature is maintained to keep the Kinos fresher for a longer period.

Meanwhile, Russia has appreciated the efforts of the NLC and SIFC to promote bilateral trade between the two countries.

The launch of the direct transit service has reshaped the trade relationship between the two countries, with immense business opportunities and the potential to increase bilateral trade to twenty billion dollars.
