The new airfreight gateway and consolidation portal will be available exclusively to freight forwarders & transport-related companies, providing instant airfreight wholesale rates, consolidation schedules, and digital bookings from major global hubs to 84 airports in Africa, starting in Southern Africa this month.
The new platform is powered by HashMove, a leading digital transformation provider based in the UAE.
Opening new and innovative ways for African logistics providers to conduct airfreight business will transform traditional notions of efficiency and routes to market, said Jade Da Costa, CCO of Aero Africa. "This is the first of many initiatives we are planning to release this year, which will bring enhanced value to the African logistics community as a whole. Aero Africa operates neutral scheduled air freight consolidations services from Asia and Europe to selected gateways in Africa. The portal will enable us to digitise effectively the air cargo logistics B2B community and to provide full visibility and transparency to our client’s airfreight import business. The platform has been built tailored to the needs of the African logistics market, taking into consideration every small detail of the air freight procurement and consolidation management model at each gateway and African destination."
