Global logistics operator Dachser is offering a new air freight service, connecting its global transport network with Latin America via the airport in Miami, Florida.
Thanks to the new connection, Dachser efficiently consolidates air freight from Europe, Asia, and North America, offering regular transport services to all major airports in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru.
– Thanks to this solution, we will be able to even better optimize connections within our global Air & Sea Logistics network. With increased transport capacities, combined with competitive prices and flexibility, we are meeting the growing demands of our customers – says Guido Gries, Managing Director of Air & Sea Logistics Americas. – By maintaining our own control over shipments at transshipment points, we also ensure a high level of service quality. This is very important for our customers and goes hand in hand with our commitment to quality.
In addition to classic air and sea transport services, Dachser also offers an innovative combination of both, carried out via the Miami airport. Miami International Airport plays an increasingly important role in global trade and is a major transshipment hub for the Caribbean and Latin America, where air transport has been growing dynamically in recent years. It is the largest airport in the United States, through which 1.9 million tons of cargo were transported in 2014, and the 9th largest airport in the world. Miami Airport has the highest number of regular flights to Latin America. Approximately 80 percent of this air freight is destined for the south of the continent.
