Equine International Airfreight (EIAF) is proud to
announce the opening of an Australian Government approved quarantine facility
in England, which will present owners with a professional and competitive
option to transport horses from the United Kingdom to Australia.
EIAF
already has an established quarantine facility in Europe, from which it has
safely transported horses out of the region for quite some time, but the
approved farm in England really opens up the playing field for those with horse
interests in the United Kingdom that are Aussie bound.
"EIAF
has formed an association with the highly reputable BBA Shipping and The Equine
Logistics Company in the United Kingdom which will now allow EIAF to vie for
the 300 plus horses that currently make the journey from the UK to Australia
each year," EIAF's Managing Director, Cameron Croucher, points out.
"Where once a monopoly existed, this now gives clients a much more competitive
and price sensitive edge, whilst providing a great level of experience and
professionalism that is vital for the safe transport of horses.
"The
quarantine facility - Blackhorse Farm - is a boutique property based in
Newmarket, the heart of England's equine population. Spread over 30 acres of
lovely, pastured land with safe fencing, Blackhorse Farm has turn out paddocks,
a horse walker and lunging ring, outdoor arena and isolation stables.
"Managed
by Leanne Needham, Blackhorse Farm specialises in the movement of
thoroughbreds, sport and polo horses - all breeds actually - and is an ideal
quarantine facility which was immediately approved when inspected recently by
the Australian Department of Agriculture.
"EIAF
has always aligned itself with credible, experienced shipping operators and has
a close association with one of the world's leading shipping companies in
Europe with Guido Klatte.
"This
new association with BBA Shipping and Equine Logistics Company really opens up
the field though and, most importantly, provides owners with a viable
alternative - both in terms of services and pricing. Up until now there has
been no competition in this market place and that is about to change for the
better, particularly for the clients.
"Without
competition, people end up paying a premium, but now the landscape will
change."
