The new route launch comes on the heels of the&#13;<br \/>\nintroduction of GEODIS&#8217; Shanghai to Guadalajara flight in March this year,&#13;<br \/>\nwhich has improved cargo connectivity to the West Coast of the Americas. GEODIS&#13;<br \/>\nalso continues with its dedicated service from Hong Kong to Guadalajara.<\/p>\n<p>The new flight will also help&#13;<br \/>\nexpand GEODIS&#8217; operations in Asia with increased connectivity, aiming to build&#13;<br \/>\non its existing customer base consisting of pharmaceutical, high tech, and&#13;<br \/>\nretail clients. The new service will offer all the existing AirDirect options&#13;<br \/>\nof AirFast, AirFlex, and AirSave services with much needed guaranteed capacity.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The strength of our network&#13;<br \/>\nin Europe plays a critical role in driving our growth in APAC.

This network plays an important role&#13;<br \/>\nin the company&#8217;s business growth in Southeast Asia. GEODIS&#8217; cross-border&#13;<br \/>\ntrucking operations offer scheduled departures for consignments along the&#13;<br \/>\nSingapore-Kuala Lumpur-Bangkok axis, with multi-modal gateway services beyond&#13;<br \/>\nthese hubs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While taking care of our&#13;<br \/>\ncustomers&#8217; priorities across the region, it&#8217;s very important for us, as a&#13;<br \/>\nrecognized service provider to factor in the demands of end users, who are&#13;<br \/>\ncomprised of high tech, automotive, and industrial customers,&#8221; said Chris&#13;<br \/>\nCahill, Managing Director, North Asia Sub-Region at GEODIS. &#8220;Having our own&#13;<br \/>\nnetwork combined with our recently expanded logistics facilities gives us&#13;<br \/>\nunparalleled security and end-to-end control over every aspect&#13;<br \/>\nof the operation, maintaining optimal conditions for the cargo, but also&#13;<br \/>\nensures our customers enjoy\u00a0reliable capacity for moving supply&#13;<br \/>\nparts to production facilities or finished goods to their destinations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.com\/v3\/__https:\/geodis.keepeek.com\/bMNkIv13f__;!!PZGyUz0!OOaqWkZTfD71ovwUwipbxQdwDrTom9_q6O_gcGtPQhsx1jr7Wl81bzKUPYq7TtIacQ$\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"3\">https:\/\/geodis.keepeek.com\/bMNkIv13f<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.media-outreach.com\/news\/2021-09-21\/95270\/geodis-expands-airdirect-service-between-europe-and-asia-with-new-route\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HONG KONG SAR &#8211;\u00a0Media OutReach\u00a0&#8211; 21 September 2021 &#8211; GEODIS, a&#13; global leading transport and logistics services provider, is extending its AirDirect&#13; service with the addition of a twice weekly flight routed London Stansted&#13; (STN)\/Amsterdam (AMS)\/ Hong Kong (HKG)\/STN\/AMS.
