Cargojet, Canada’s leading freighter operator, has reached a major milestone by exceeding C$1 billion in annual revenue for the first time in 2024, reflecting a 14.1% year-over-year increase. This impressive growth is driven by expanding domestic operations, increased charter services, and a rising demand for e-commerce logistics.
Key Growth Drivers
✔ Expanding Domestic Network – A C$20.9 million increase in domestic freight operations, fueled by strong e-commerce and B2B shipping demand.
✔ Rise in ACMI Operations – A C$36.5 million boost in Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance (ACMI) services, supporting short-term cargo aircraft deployments.
✔ Surge in Charter Services – Charter revenues jumped by C$58.7 million, driven by scheduled flights between China and Canada and a higher demand for ad hoc charters.
Financial Performance & Fleet Expansion
- EBIT Growth – Earnings before tax rose 166.3% to C$137.8 million.
- Net Earnings Surge – A 190.6% increase, reaching C$108.4 million.
- Fleet Expansion – Cargojet is set to induct three converted Boeing 767-300 aircraft in 2025 to support its growing international operations.
2025 Outlook: Strengthening Market Position
Cargojet remains well-positioned for further market expansion, but it also anticipates global trade uncertainties such as tariff policies and economic fluctuations. Despite these challenges, the company’s strong financial position and strategic fleet investments will allow it to maintain steady growth in the air cargo sector.
