A SPECIAL PORTAL FOCUS ON AFRICA ( MARCH / APRIL 2000) HOUSEHOLD GOODS FORWARDERS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA INGAR established in Mozambique since 1984, is not only acknowledged as a pioneer in the local moving and freight forwarding business but also know for its speed, skill and efficiency in every move. Over the past several years INGAR has handled more household and personal effects than any other firm in Mozambique, reports Managing Director J.Abraham With its own trucks, moving equipment , carpenters and foreign trained professional packers, INGAR need not subcontract. This ensures that regardless of whether INGAR handles origin services for worldwide International shipments or destination services for delivery from port of entry Maputo or Beira to within Mozambique , Swaziland, Zimbabwe , Zambia , Malawi or South Africa it is able to offer a one-stop , all inclusive service with total control and efficiency.INGAR was selected by ONUMOZ, a UN peace- keeping organization in Mozambique to clear and transport 700 tons of personal effects and equipment, since it was the only company in Southern Africa that could do so within 48 hours notice. INGAR is proud to be able to hold in its files several references from highly satisfied V.I.P. clients like Ambassadors, UN Representatives and others. Abraham reports that the recent flooding in Mozambique had caused extensive damages to the country?s north ? south highway system, though air and ocean traffic are still possible. To help alleviate the human suffering resulting from the tragedy, INGAR has substantially reduced its rates for handling and distributing high volumes of relief aid. Whenever small amounts of relief aid are involved , says Abraham, INGAR tries to provide its services free wherever possible.
