Turkish Cargo, a global leader in air freight, has announced a significant expansion of its service network. The carrier is adding routes to high-demand markets in Africa and Asia, targeting regions with growing trade activities and critical logistics needs. These new routes enhance Turkish Cargo’s existing network, which already spans over 130 countries.
With a reported 12% increase in cargo volumes in Q3 2024, Turkish Cargo attributes its growth to a rising demand for specialized cargo, including pharmaceuticals, electronics, and automotive components. The carrier has also expanded its cold chain capabilities to support temperature-sensitive shipments, a move that appeals to industries like healthcare and biotech.
The company’s ambitious plan to double its cargo capacity by 2030 includes investments in new freighters and the optimization of Istanbul Airport as a global hub. By tapping into its strategic location at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, Turkish Cargo aims to provide faster transit times and cost-effective solutions to customers worldwide.
