This collaboration enhances capacity and access to a broader, interconnected network, facilitating the transportation of flowers and other essential goods for the Latin America cargo sector.
“This new service agreement enables Amazon Air Cargo to bring our customer-obsessed approach to Colombia’s air freight market segment,” said Tom Bradley, Director of Global Air Cargo for Amazon Air Cargo. “We’re excited to deliver the speed, reliability, and high service standards that Amazon customers expect, while supporting the growing demands of cross-border commerce between Colombia and the United States. This dedicated air cargo service will help businesses of all sizes connect with customers across these important market segments more efficiently.”
