More efficient and cost-effective at EWR
Alliance Ground International (AGI) has opened a new 7,000-sqm off-airport air cargo facility five minutes from New York EWR to process import freight. The cargo handling services provider is also relocating from existing facilities to a 2,230 sqm facility on airport to handle outbound/export cargo and offer a dual-facility solution.
Arriving import cargo will be trucked to the new off-airport facility by an AGI in-house shuttle service, which will connect cargo handling at the two facilities.
The off-airport facility will feature 19 cargo bay doors, active ULD charging stations, ULD storage and cold storage, pharma handling areas, increased security and easy access to major highways. CEO Jared Azcuy: "It is a solution we have tried and tested at our other locations, and it will speed up processing." (ah)
