IS THE AIR FREIGHT INDUSTRY BOOMING IN NEPAL

IS THE AIR FREIGHT INDUSTRY BOOMING IN NEPAL

The air transport industry has undergone dramatic changes in recent years, especially the widespread digitalization of the logistics industry in general. Now, airlines are looking for better metrics to control and meet demand. An increase in passenger demand forced airlines to buy more aircraft. This initially increased the air cargo capacity, but the demand did not coincide with the supply, which generated a surplus of supply that resulted in a slippage in air transport prices. 

Fortunately, with the increase in express parcel delivery worldwide, more companies and people are buying directly from producers. Trends in online shopping have had a significant impact on demand. The total value of online orders shipped increased by one-third to $400 billion from previous years. It is expected that this upward trend will continue each year. Initially, most of these goods are sent by air. 

We begin to note that the major players in the industry have already begun to make the necessary changes to the big data analysis to adopt more effective planning and infrastructure approaches. As a result, they better control agreements to determine reliability and predictability over previous years. Whether they will invest in more aircraft to satisfy the needs of expanding global trade is an open question. Moreover, we observe that customers such as Amazon are also interested in bringing solutions to their logistical needs. Companies with big growth potential and high trade volume are looking into technological advancements in the modern world to cope with increasing demand. 

Therefore, it is essential to make arrangements before the peak season, as space and availability hits low level and capacity cannot meet transportation needs. There are always some ways to organize shipments, even in difficult circumstances. However, given the costs of a regular transportation service, buyers and shippers can take different actions. Small and medium-sized exporters and importers must be extremely cautious when creating their delivery schedules. 

Consider that consolidation services can be a good idea if you ship in fewer quantities, as this will save you more money on your airfare. In addition, working with a cargo agent with consolidation air services can increase your chances of booking space for shorter periods. At this stage, it is essential to choose a supplier who has a proven track record in transporting the cargo of the project. Cargo Nepal is a leader in this field and has successfully delivered projects to high standards before. Our impeccable track record in this field distinguishes us from other cargo providers.
