Hong Kong Air Cargo Industry Services Limited (Hacis) – Hactl’s wholly-owned, value-added services subsidiary – has signed a partnership with logistics and supply chain technology expert, Flexport, to establish the gateway as the latter’s transit hub.
Hacis initially provided mail handling services to Flexport, and gradually expanded its offerings to include Merge-in-Transit (MiT) solutions as well as Airport Direct import and export services. Hacis is now providing a fully integrated one-stop-shop suite of services that enables Flexport to route cargo through Hong Kong as a key transit hub.
Through its MiT solution, Hacis merges shipments from multiple origins in Hong Kong under forwarder control before onward delivery. Under its Airport Direct services, Hacis handles cargo collection, delivery, documentation, on-airport storage, containerisation and fulfilment, with operations located immediately beside the apron at SuperTerminal 1 for maximum speed and efficiency.
Hacis executive director, Ringo Chan, said: “With our fully integrated, one-stop-shop service, we enable Flexport to route cargo via Hong Kong with greater reliability and efficiency.”
Flexport head of APAC, Daniel Sanvicente, added: ”With its one-stop-shop approach and direct air-side access facility, partnering with Hacis enables Flexport to provide highly efficient, consolidated air services across a broad network. Utilizing Hong Kong’s strategic location as a key gateway for South China origin cargo, this collaboration expands our connectivity and service offerings, fueling Flexport’s continued growth in South China and our expanding presence across Southeast Asia and beyond.”
