The STAT Trade Times - August 2020

I dette nummeret

In the August issue of The STAT Trade Times the cover story takes a peek into how the freight forwarding industry is racing up to innovate digitally to stay ahead with a competitive advantage. Interestingly, the Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated the digitalisation pace even more.
We bring a report on a recent webinar that discussed recurring topics of the air cargo industry. Speakers at the webinar were unanimous on the opinion that it is about time to make a concerted effort to make the right investments in digitalisation to take the mantle ahead.
Our special report looks at the cargo revenue spike seen among carriers even though there has been substantial reduction in capacity and volume. The report argues that with the grounding of two-thirds of all passenger aircraft across the globe and coupled with rising freight rates, cargo has become the only silver line for most carriers.
In our interview section we bring exclusive conversations with Jessica Tyler who was recently elevated to the position of President, Cargo and Vice President, Airport Excellence at American Airlines and Nadeem Sultan who joined CargoLogicAir in January this year to be promoted to become the CEO very recently.
And in our industry report we take a look at the changes taking place in the MRO and aerospace logistics amidst the pandemic.
