Cathay Cargo took its special handling expertise to Asia’s leading perishables showcase, Asia Fruit Logistica, held in Hong Kong in the first week of September, with an exhibition booth based around its Cathay Fresh special shipment solution. The three-day event’s opening hours experienced some disruption from the passing Typhoon Yagi, but that did not dampen enthusiasm among exhibitors across the halls of the city’s Asia World Expo complex.
Cathay Cargo built an impressive stand featuring a mock-up of an air-cargo freighter with its nose open ready for loading, decorated throughout with the fresh produce of the types that Cathay Cargo carries, and a section dedicated to the Cathay Cargo Terminal, which offers many of the facilities, including its MobiFresh storage units, that have been designed for temperature-sensitive cargoes. With the upcoming revamp of Cathay Cargo’s Cathay Fresh solution, this was an ideal opportunity to demonstrate Cathay Cargo’s expertise and care to the perishables market when it comes to shipping goods from fine black truffles from Australia to the first Vietnamese pomelos to be exported to the US.
