air cargo Africa, the sector’s leading biennale industry exhibition and conference, which was originally scheduled to be held on February 9-11, 2021, has been cancelled.
Messe Muenchen South Africa, organiser of the event, announced the decision to cancel the 2021 edition, on account of the Covid-19 pandemic, with associated lockdown and air travel restrictions. The next event will be staged as scheduled in 2023.
Suzette Scheepers, CEO of Messe Muenchen South Africa, says, “In these disruptive times, we had to take into consideration: the health and safety of stakeholders and visitors; the uncertain environment exhibitors find themselves in as many borders remain closed; and the need for industry stakeholders to focus on their core operational strategies at this time.”
