From the pages of CargoTalk: COVID-19 has increased the significance of air cargo: Saurabh Kumar

Speaking on the size of the new market, once the recovery happens in few quarters, Saurabh Kumar, CEO, Hyderabad Air Cargo, highlighted, “In the last three months we have fundamentally realised that air cargo is a very significant component. It used to be an add-on ancillary, however, today the significance of air cargo is much high. The focus is on ensuring that supply lines are efficient and adequate capacity is available and people believe that air cargo is the most reliable and fastest mode of transportation that would still be available to the economy even if a similar pandemic hits in the future. There will be better growth after we overcome the threshold recovery in the next few quarters.”
