Barbra Streisand Tel Aviv 2013

Barbara Streisand ended her World Tour in Tel Aviv, Israel on 23 June with the 100th live performance of her career.


Sonigo International Shipping handled the 
household moves to Israel of some 40 tons of air cargo. 
Besides clearing the shipment under ATA Carnet, Sonigo unloaded the plane and loaded the trucks which brought the equipment to the Bloomfield Stadium in Tel Aviv.  Sonigo’s crews then unloaded the equipment used for the staging, lighting and sound equipment.

After her performance, Sonigo’s crews packed her equipment, sending some 10 tons by air cargo and loading the rest in two 40 foot containers.

According to General Manager David Sonigo, “Timing is everything in show business.  We cannot permit any delays and the planning of an operation like this requires us to plan for and accommodate contingencies…because if something can happen – it usually does!  At the same time, the performance must start on time and we guarantee it.”

“Of course, household moves to Israel are our core business, but our crews love the extra hours working in show business.”

Established in 1986, Sonigo Shipping with some 60 team members, provides shipping and moving services to thousands of families a year.
