London, UK, Tuesday 10th November 2020 – The WACO System (WACO) has appointed Moscow-headquartered AAA-A2 Cargo as its new member for Russia.

The independent freight forwarder has a second office in St. Petersburg, Russia, as well as others in Minsk, Belarus; Vilnius, Lithuania; and Riga, Latvia.

Founded in 1994, AAA-A2 Cargo offers a full suite of forwarding and Customs’ brokerage services and has a focus on time and temperature-sensitive shipments.

“Joining WACO has been long-awaited, and we are happy to be accepted to represent the network in Russia,” said Marat Barkovski, Founder of AAA-A2 Cargo.

“We are looking to build better solutions for our existing customers based on services from WACO members, and we expect to be a good support to other members in Russia.

“Our focus market is time and temperature-sensitive cargo and we are well equipped and knowledgeable for the carriage of clinical trials and pharmaceutical goods in pre-set temperature conditions.”

The WACO network has a combined annual turnover of USD four billion and has been strengthening its global footprint, most recently by appointing Gollcher as the member for Malta.

“To have a member that can effectively and efficiently handle freight forwarding across Russia is a great benefit to the WACO community,” said Richard Charles, Chief Executive Officer at WACO.
