AIR FREIGHTASIA2011 – AN OPPORTUNITY TO HIGHLIGHT THE SUSTAINED DEMAND IN GROWTH


Asia Pacific-based airlines have led the industry recovery in 2010 and they are on track to report significantly improved financial results for the full year. And the carriers’2011 outlook also remains broadly positive, given expectations of sustained demand growth. The industry’s 2011 forecast andmany other thought-


provoking topics focusing on Asia, particularly on the second fastest-growing global economy China estimated by its Central Bank to record 10 percentGDP growth in 2010,will be underlined by leading veteran industry experts at Air Freight Asia 2011 – the region’s foremost conference and exhibition for air cargo and supply chain executives. “Air Freight Asia 2011 offers delegates a unique combination


of exhibition, conferences and networking opportunities – the first of its kind – all under one roof,”said BrianThomas, vice president - aerospace & aviation, Reed Exhibitions, the organiser of the Airfreight Asia 2011 event. This year’smain Air Freight Asia conference“TheGolden


Dragon: China’s air cargomarket continues to shine”will be complimented for the first time by a dedicated Aviation and Aerospace Supply Chain Summit.These two events are attracting global and local leaders in air freight, logistics and freight forwarding. An additional summit is being organised in co-operationwith


theGlobal Supply Chain Council, an influential industry body that represents 60,000 logistics professionals. Commenting on Air Freight Asia 2011,Hong Kong Shippers’


Council executive director SunnyHo, said the Aviation and Aerospace Supply Chain Summitwill certainly enhance this year’s event. “Shipperswill be interested in newsolutions, new technologies and newapplications that the logistics and the air freight industry can provide,”he said. “Air Freight Asia, including the conference and exhibition,


provides an opportunity for shippers, especially big shippers, to come into contactwith the service providers and operators. South China is predominated by a large presence of SMEs and they are difficult to reach andmobilise,” Howent on. “Hong Kong is a convenient location for themasHong Kong


manufacturers are still the largest group of factory owners and operators in the Pearl RiverDelta in southern China. In addition, manyHong Kong andmainland Chinese freight forwarders and logistics providers are keen to find overseas partners and Airfreight Asia 2011 does provide a very good opportunity for them,”he concluded. Delegates to the Airfreight Asia 2011 eventwill have the golden opportunity tomake site visits to theworld’s leading international air cargo terminal operatorHong Kong Air Cargo Terminals Limited (Hactl), the territory’s second largest operator Asia AirfreightTerminal (AAT) andDHL’s Central Asia Hub, all ofwhich are situated atHong Kong International airport.
