Boom Logistics

What Boom Logistics does

Boom Logistics Colombia S.A.S is a privately held Colombian specialist logistics company headquartered in Barranquilla that transports oversized (extradimensionada) and heavy (extrapesada) cargo for industrial megaprojects. Founded by engineers with national and international megaproject experience, the company operates three bases along the Colombian Caribbean coast (Barranquilla HQ, plus Malambo, Cartagena and Santa Marta) and serves six primary verticals: petroleum and energy, cement, power generation, railway, mining, and general industry. Named enterprise customers include Promigas (energy), Bavaria (manufacturing/consumer goods) and Argos (cement), indicating penetration into capital-intensive industries that regularly move large process equipment.

The company's offering combines a substantial physical asset base with an in-house engineering department. Equipment includes telescopic cranes ranging from 25 to 300 metric tons (Grove, Terex, Link Belt), specialized heavy-haul trucks (Volvo FM 4080, International Eagle 9400I), modular trailers (Faymonville, Cometto), a 1,200 HP tugboat (El Porteño), a 2,800-ton capacity barge (Finzenu II), and modular jacking/skidding systems for heavy structure transport. Engineering services include Project Simulation, Route Studies, Bridge Studies, and Planning/Advisory, designed to assess route feasibility, bridge load capacity, and execution risk before mobilization.

The business model is project-based B2B professional services, with quote-based pricing determined by cargo specifications, route complexity, equipment requirements and project duration, typically structured as multi-year contracts. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting engineering and operations decision-makers at heavy-industry owners and EPC contractors, supported by a project portfolio website, direct quote-request forms, and intra-industry referrals. The company holds an Integrated Management System certification covering quality, safety and environmental standards, alongside human-rights and anti-corruption compliance documentation.
