Unilode Aviation Solutions has appointed US-owned XPO Logistics to manage its fleet of airfreight unit load devices (ULDs) in Europe. XPO will manage Unilode’s worldwide flows of shortlease equipment, digital tracking technology, critical spare parts and capital equipment delivered directly into airline networks across the globe.
It marks a significant expansion for XPO Logistics into the global aviation and aerospace sector.
Through its Global Connect control tower, XPO Logistics will coordinate all global flows using integrated critical path planning, enabling Unilode to optimise stock positioning, reduce inventory levels, and ensure equipment reaches the right location at the right time.
