Alex Popa
Operations Manager
What’s the most interesting or surprising thing you’ve ever transported?
Of all the interesting and unusual things I’ve transported, my favourite would have to be the full-size replica of the Iron Throne from Game of Thrones. It was not designed with ease-of-shipping in mind. Another story that people find interesting involves three vans full of gold bars from Paris to Toulouse. I arranged a convoy of five vans, with two empty to accompany the others.
What has been your favourite moment when helping a client?
A job well-done is always satisfying. None more so than arranging a transport of 15,000kgs of goods from the UK to Hungary. I arranged for fifteen vans to load and depart in a 4 hour window, so they then could make the delivery on time.
What do you enjoy doing when you are not working?
I love sport, poker and go-karting, and my passion is travelling to explore new places.
