https://ufreight.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/bg-FREIGHT-SERVICES-scaled.jpg953600In the latest edition of Air Cargo Management, TIACA’s Glyn Hughes outlines how air cargo must adapt to e-commerce’s rapid growth through harmonised standards, smarter data and sustainable operations. As a early entrant and on-going investor into meeting the ever-increasing challenges of providing logistics services to this rapidly expanding sector of global trade, this makes very interesting reading for the U-Freight Group. In the article Hughes reports that at the close of 2024, e-commerce accounted for approximately 20% of air cargo volumes worldwide, with projections that those volumes could double within the following decade. Various business models have been employed to handle, process, transport, clear and deliver this high volume of shipments. However, as the growth happened over a rapid period, accelerated by Covid-induced changes in consumer behaviours, many deviations to processes emerged.
