Gosselin receives special award for offered services

Gosselin received a special award from ELSO to express their gratitude for our services in a collaboration for NATO.

Goods from different member states had to be transported to the NATO summit in Washington DC. “ELSO coordinated the whole project and had the goods delivered to the Gosselin headquarters in Belgium. There we sorted everything, doublechecked all the packing lists, and transported it to Washington in liftvans”, Logistics Director, Dirk Van Hoomissen, explains. Afterwards the goods returned to Belgium where they were recollected.

It was a straightforward project but one of high importance to the Senior Directors of ELSO at the White House. The award serves as a token of gratitude for the flawless collaboration. ELSO Director Amy Kara, who was present at the award ceremony, was pleased too. “Great things are never accomplished by one individual.  They’re completed by a team.  Thanks to the entire GovLog team for the hard work and dedication supporting the transportation of supplies for the NATO summit in Washington DC.”
