Safety and professionalism from the Kardinal company

Kardinal Group has successfully implemented hundreds of projects for road transportation throughout Russia, the CIS, Turkey and Europe, ensuring uninterrupted delivery of goods. Our experience is confirmed by the numbers:

  • More than 10,000 tons of cargo annually
  • Over 3,000 flights per year in Russia and the CIS
  • 500+ groupage cargo delivered monthly

We carry out international road transport of goods:

  • Less than cargo (LTL) - save up to 40% on small shipments
  • Full loads (FTL) - 20 t, 40 t trucks, Euro trucks
  • Refrigerated transport (from -25°C to +25°C)
  • Oversized and heavy cargo (up to 120 t)

In Russia, road transport remains the only solution for 80% of cargo transportation. It provides mobility and efficiency that are unavailable to other modes of transport. There is no alternative to motor transport when transporting expensive goods over short and medium distances.

Kardinal Group organizes road transport from China, Europe and the CIS countries to any region of Russia. We operate along key logistics corridors, ensuring fast and safe delivery of goods. Main directions:

  1. From China to Russia: transportation of general and consolidated cargo from our own consolidation warehouse in Hunchun
  2. From Europe and Turkey to Russia: groupage, general cargo via the Baltic states
  3. International transportation in the CIS: Kazakhstan, Belarus, Armenia, Uzbekistan

    Let's transfer money to Europe, open EX1. We will deliver any consolidated cargo from our consolidation warehouse in Vilnius or Istanbul.

Among the main positive aspects, one can note the mobility (efficiency) of vehicles, i.e., the speed of implementation of any solution in the presence of a vehicle can be reduced to a minimum, which no other type of transport can allow, unless “the stars align.” Next is a fairly high speed of movement through the network, as well as the ability to deliver cargo directly “to the door.”

There is no alternative to motor transport when transporting expensive goods over short and medium distances.

The cost of road transport services today, when compared with related modes of transport, strongly depends on the type of cargo, distance and current conditions of the transport market as a whole, i.e. today you cannot call it cheap.

Speaking about road transport in the context of international logistics, today it has occupied a serious niche there, creating certain problems for the cargo base of allied companies. And under the current sanctions, the lion’s share of road carriers from Belarus, and even from the EU, have directed their capacities towards South Africa. We in the Russian Federation have a slightly different problem: carriers from the People's Republic of China simply flooded the automotive space of the Russian Federation, not giving work to our brother and dumping prices on the automobile freight market.

    I contacted Kardinal to pay for a foreign invoice, the situation was nervous - deadlines were running out, and any delay threatened to ruin the deal The coolest thing is that the guys did everything clearly and without any questions, as if it wasn’t a problem at all Everything was fast, to the point, and kept in the loop at every step. It’s rare to see such well-coordinated work - it’s clear that the team is really professional👍 If it weren’t for them, the story could have ended completely differently)

    Honestly, at first I was skeptical - just another company that promises “turnkey everything.” But when our previous supplier from China disappeared with the advance payment, he turned here. The guys not only found a new manufacturer, but also checked it through local agents. The shipment arrived on time, customs cleared without a single question. Now I recommend it to all my colleagues!

    Great company, we've been working with them for a couple of years now, no problems. All delivery issues from abroad are resolved on a turnkey basis. We sent the documents, paid the invoice and are waiting. At the same time, it turns out cheaper than other companies that gave us a quote, offering only delivery, without nuances - how to pay, how to clear customs.

    We worked with an order for the delivery of artificial plants, palm trees, flowers, etc. for the improvement of a recreation center. The specialists not only suggested that our supplier was unreliable, but also helped us select an alternative - we were happy with the prices and were happy with the goods we received. Thank you, we will contact you again.

    I have been working with this company for more than 5 years and have never had any complaints. The cost is slightly lower than the market, but you can always bargain. The goods are always delivered safe and sound, and they can pay for you at the Chinese factory. Everything is fine, everyone is happy

    We transport equipment for the food industry from China through them. From plant inspection to delivery to the workshop - everything is turnkey. It is especially valuable that they help with certification and labeling. Already 5 containers, zero problems. A solid five.

    The first time we ordered from China, we were afraid that we would lose the cargo. Kardinal explained each stage: finding a factory, checking samples, consolidation, delivery, broker. We cleared customs in 1 day. Now only with them.

    We sent oversized equipment from Guangzhou to Yekaterinburg. “Kardinal” themselves calculated the risks, chartered special transport, and went through customs. Arrived intact and on time. Very pleased, we will come back again.
