GEODIS provides logistics support to MND, a French industrial group specializing in cable mobility, snowmaking systems, mountain safety and thrill leisure infrastructures, which is supplying the key equipment to the future Chimgan tourist resort, located northeast of Tashkent. GEODIS is continuing its support of the project having already managed 92 shipments for over the past year, including 4 exceptional convoys, to Uzbekistan, delivering cable lifts and infrastructure. The European Road Network line of business’ partnership with MND continues with this new phase of supply shipments scheduled to commence in March 2026.
The equipment to be transported includes chairlifts, gondolas, an alpine coaster, ziplines, and other installations for ski resort development and will assist in the strategic project aimed at establishing a major mountain tourism destination, set to become one of Central Asia’s leading leisure hubs.
In the context of significant geopolitical constraints, which excludes any transit through Russia or Iran, the GEODIS teams have designed an alternative, reliable and optimized logistics solution. This combines road and sea transport using tautliner semi-trailers, ensuring that transshipment of goods between loading and unloading is necessary. The equipment will be shipped from several European sites via the ports of Sète (France) and Trieste (Italy), then transported by ship via Turkey and the Caspian Sea to Uzbekistan. The average journey duration will be between 30 and 45 days.

“This highly complex international project perfectly illustrates our expertise: building tailor-made supply chains where traditional routes are no longer available. Our role is to secure flows, control lead times, and provide long-term support to our industrial clients on such strategic international projects,” says Marc Vollet, Executive Vice-President of European Road Network activities at GEODIS.
GEODIS is a major global third-party logistics (3PL) provider and supply chain operator based in France. Owned by the SNCF Group (French National Railway Company), it ranks among the top logistics companies worldwide, with a network spanning nearly 170 countries and employing over 50,000 people
