Logistics firm cargo-partner has expanded its air consolidation service by adding a new route between Germany and Mexico as it looks to combat disruption on the route.
The service will operate between Frankfurt and Felipe Ángeles International Airport and was launched as shippers face a “tense market situation” on services between Europe and Mexico.
“The demand for reliable and cost-effective transport solutions to Mexico has surged, leading to an increasingly unreliable market in terms of rates and services,” the company said.
“In response, cargo-partner has added yet another route to its air consolidation portfolio, offering a dependable solution to help customers maintain the integrity of their supply chains.”
The logistics firm said that it could facilitate pre-carriage services for its customers in western Europe. It also offers consol services out of Budapest to Mexico.
It added that the airfreight consols to Mexico City are particularly well-suited for customers in the automotive industry that require reliable just-in-time delivery.
Jo Feiks, corporate director of product management air cargo at cargo-partner, said: “In light of the current market challenges, European exporters are facing hurdles in securing cost-efficient freight capacities to Mexico.
“With fixed capacities, stable transit times, and long-term rates, our new air consolidation service from Frankfurt to Mexico City ensures regular and dependable services amidst unpredictable market conditions.”
Cargo-partner added that it had also seen a rise in demand for airfreight from Europe to Asia due to the Red Sea crisis.
