As the representatives of Agility claim, the cargo is now moving underway. There were certain challenges the company faced. It concerned the items made in India, Italy, and Korea. Among the cargos, there were 4 columns with the weight of over 800 metric tonnes and 2 with the weight of over 300 metric tonnes. The transportation was carried out by road and by water. It was vital to make sure they had the appropriate means of transport including barges, vessels, and vehicles. One of the significant complications was the restrictions of the roads in Kuwait.
