Corridors

International corridors

A corridor is not a market on a map. It is a route we know, a document set we have produced, and counterparties we can name at both ends.

Anchor means cargo is moving today. Open means the network and the route are in place and the first mandates are being structured. We do not describe a corridor as running before it runs.

Vietnam and Azerbaijan

Caspian to ASEAN gateway

The anchor corridor and the one carrying cargo today. Sturgeon caviar and sturgeon meat move from a certified plant in Azerbaijan into Vietnamese cold stores under a full CITES and veterinary document set.

Routes

Routes and transit times

The route is chosen by the temperature the product needs. The times below are ranges and depend on the sailing schedule and the transshipment port.

  • Air
    2 - 4days

    Caviar, chilled fish, smoked goods with a short shelf life

  • Sea
    35 - 45days

    Frozen goods in a full reefer container

  • Sea
    30 - 40days

    Frozen goods, the alternative when the Poti schedule does not fit

  • Rail
    22 - 30days

    Frozen goods over the Middle Corridor when sea is too slow

Matching

Cross border partner matching

Most corridor work starts with a counterparty problem, not a logistics problem. A producer needs a Vietnamese buyer with the right licence, or an investor needs an operator who has done it before. We shortlist both sides, check the paperwork behind the introduction, and stay in the deal until it closes.

Open a corridor
  1. 01You describe the counterparty you need, with the licence or certificate that is mandatory for you
  2. 02We shortlist candidates on the other side and verify registration, capacity and export or import history
  3. 03We introduce with a brief on both parties, and sit in the first meetings
  4. 04We structure the trial transaction so both sides can test the other before a long contract
