versatility of freighters in handling specialised cargo ensures that they will remain a
signi昀椀cant part of the logistics landscape,
albeit potentially in a reduced capacity. The
capability of freighters to carry high-value
or time-sensitive goods provides a competitive edge that cannot be easily replaced by
passenger aircraft alone. Therefore, while
the overall number of freighters might
decrease, their strategic importance in the
logistics chain will likely persist.
How do you customise your services to
meet the varied needs of clients across
di昀昀erent industries? In the future, how
do you envision enterprises to support
air logistics growth?
Logistics is undergoing a signi昀椀cant transformation, driven by evolving customer needs
and market demands. To stay competitive,
businesses must adapt to these changes and
leverage integrated solutions.
Our latest offering, the Hub Control
System (HCS), exempli昀椀es this approach
by streamlining the cargo transfer process
and better prioritising shipments based on
scheduled departure times. This integrated
approach not only enhances operational
e昀케ciency by ensuring on-time performance
but also positions us to better meet the
shifting requirements of the market, improve
shipment handling e昀케ciency and reduce
service failures for shipments transferring
through our key hub stations.
In my view, the future of air cargo logistics will increasingly rely on such integrated
systems that provide comprehensive support
and 昀氀exibility. Businesses should focus on
developing solutions that not only address
current demands but also anticipate future
trends. This strategic foresight will be crucial
for maintaining a competitive edge in an
ever-evolving industry. Thus, our emphasis
will be on re昀椀ning our integrated o昀昀erings
and ensuring they align with the dynamic
landscape of global logistics.
Can you provide any details on when
you plan to enter the Indian market,
and how do you intend to adapt your
services to meet the evolving demands
of this market?
Regarding our plans for entering the Indian

this moment, I can share that it is a strategic
priority for us. We are actively evaluating the
opportunities and challenges in the Indian
market and are committed to ensuring that
our entry aligns with our overall business
strategy and market readiness.
In my view, the future of air
cargo logistics will increasingly rely on such integrated
systems that provide comprehensive support and flexibility.
Businesses should focus on
developing solutions that not
only address current demands
but also anticipate future
trends. This strategic foresight
will be crucial for maintaining
a competitive edge in an everevolving industry.
Rest assured, we are working diligently
