BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANISATION
On 4 July 2007, the Register of Enterprises of the Republic of Latvia registers the reorganisation of the State Joint-Stock Company Latvijas Dzelzceļš, and as a result the freight transport activity is transferred to the subordinated entity LDZ CARGO. On this date, LDZ CARGO Ltd. commenced independent business operations. During the first years of operation, LDZ CARGO Ltd. not only established its position in the freight transport sector, but also became one of the industry leaders. Currently, LDZ CARGO Ltd. is a stable company working successfully with more than 3,800 freight service customers representing cargo owners, stevedores and forwarders. The types of freight carried include petroleum, coal, metal, timber, foodstuffs, fertilisers, chemicals, etc. The company operates in the SMGS and CIM railway regulatory environment and utilises all key East-West and North-South transport corridors. A new freight volume record was reached in 2011 - almost 60 million tonnes.
The mission is to provide domestic and international freight transport services, internationa passenger transport services and transport-related services.

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
