On 19JUL24, it was curtains up for Royal Air Maroc Cargo’s digital debut on cargo.one, setting a precedence in the Maghreb as the platform’s first North African carrier. In the same vein, cargo.one is the carrier’s first digital platform. It was chosen because of its proven user-friendliness, efficiency, global market reach, and opportunities to grow its business. All freight forwarders using cargo.one across the platform’s 121 markets, will be able to explore the Moroccan national carrier’s international cargo network and book capacity either in the belly holds of its passenger fleet, or on its dedicated freighters over the coming weeks. Selected EMEA markets already have access, with North America and the Middle East soon to join, too. “Royal Air Maroc Cargo is developing fast. With a flexible fleet and its main hub in Casablanca, the carrier benefits from a geostrategic location at the crossroads of international air cargo lanes linking the Americas, Europe, Africa and the Middle East,” the release states. The airline serves a wide range of industries. It accepts bookings for General Cargo shipments of up to 1000 kg on its wide-body aircraft, and 500 kg on its narrow-bodies. Soon, perishable shipments will also be bookable, “with all bookings benefiting from cargo.one standards for usability, control and competitive rates.”
Yassine Berrada, VP Cargo at Royal Air Maroc, stated: “Partnering with cargo.one enables us to enter the digital market strongly and deliver our customers a world-class digital booking experience. cargo.one is currently empowering our internal teams with valuable tactics to capitalize upon all our relevant market potentials.” Moritz Claussen, Founder and Co-CEO of cargo.one, commented: “It is great news for freight forwarders that Royal Air Maroc Cargo capacity is now within effortless digital reach. For Royal Air Maroc Cargo, we will of course apply our experience from digitalizing the sales functions of over 60 airlines globally, to power its digital strategy and strengthen its future growth.”
