The WetTeam

Thord Lydstrand, logistic manager tells me about the wet-team 

By the dockside the barges are lining up. A huge crane are lifting a container in massive chains. A man directs the truck driver and when the container is in place I manage to catch him to ask what they are doing. 

-       We are building the depot for Ericsson and Telefonica Blue and Black on two big barges, this because it all shall to be close for audience to follow what´s going on, says Thord Lydstrand.


StockholmStopover is a challenges for the logistic managers when the usually lifts for the boats are not allowed due to its location in old town, it can´t handle the weight. 


If you ever been to, or watch a GrandPrix race you know how important the depot are for the crew in the race.  Thord is logistic manager and it is his responsibility that all containers traveling worldwide are ending up on the right place at the right time.

-       The people you see here is crew of the wet team. We are taking care of the boats while the dry team are meeting visitors face to face at the pavilions.




The man in the truck yells for Thord and one guy in Eriksson- clothes, sort of wetsuit, comes up to us from the barge. Time to direct container lifts.
