SDLG pivots to railway delivery amid COVID-19

With roads closed between China and Kazakhstan amid COVID-19, SDLG transformed its delivery system from trucks to trains to ensure local dealer TOO Sevalo Engineering Machinery Kazakhstan has the necessary inventory to meet demands.

SDLG dealer TOO Sevalo Engineering Machinery Kazakhstan says they are thrilled that SDLG is demonstrating reliability in action and overcoming road closures to help restock its inventory with SDLG LG933L and LG953 loaders, as well as G9190 graders. These SDLG machines are gaining popularity in Kazakhstan for construction because they offer value for money and high uptime.

The shipment for TOO Sevalo Engineering Machinery Kazakhstan included 52 SDLG wheel loaders and motor graders along with machine parts. The huge rail convoy departed Qingdao, China, on April 27 and arrived in Almaty, Kazakhstan, on May 3.

“Our new railway delivery system opens up a safer, more cost efficient and faster way of moving machines and parts between our factory in China, to customers in Kazakhstan and beyond,” said Wang Xiaohui, General Manager of SDLG Import and Export Company.

TOO Sevalo Engineering Machinery Kazakhstan is based in Almaty and has 12 branches around the country.
