All good things come in threes. For Emirates SkyCargo, this is the addition of cargo.one to its digital marketplace options. The carrier began the rollout of its network capacities last week, offering cargo.one users the options to book four of its products: Emirates Fresh, Emirates Fresh Breathe (both perishables solution variations), Emirates Airfreight Priority for urgent shipments, and its general cargo service: Emirates Airfreight. Customers are shown real-time space availability, tariffs and contract rates, and can access the airline’s schedule. Starting out in certain European countries first, Emirates SkyCargo will then also be made available to users in the Americas, Africa, the Far East and Australasia. “cargo.one now contributes to Emirates SkyCargo’s digital status in the market, with its seamless booking experience and reach to 15,000 freight forwarders in every corner of the world,” the release states, going on to say: “The new channel cements Emirates SkyCargo’s presence on three of the biggest digital marketplaces, providing more choice and flexibility for global customers.”
Moritz Claussen, Founder & Co-CEO, cargo.one, commented: “The addition of Emirates SkyCargo’s global connectivity to cargo.one will equip thousands of forwarders with enhanced resilience from even more daily services on many key trade lanes, as well as a number of exciting new destinations throughout Africa and the Middle East. The combination of Emirates SkyCargo’s vast services and cargo.one’s great efficiencies is a valuable proposition, and one that reflects just how critical digital booking now is for forwarding success in every market.” Jeffrey van Haeften, Senior Vice President Cargo Commercial Worldwide, Emirates SkyCargo, explained: “Digitalization is a key way that we help the world work better, providing flexible and convenient options for freight forwarders to seamlessly access Emirates SkyCargo’s world-class product and services. In turn, by streamlining our quotations and bookings, we enable our teams to focus on providing outstanding customer service, which is the cornerstone of our brand. We will continue to invest in digital solutions and partnerships such as cargo.one to enhance the experience for our customers and expedite the movement of goods all over the world.”
