Intermodal
Gets High Marks
|
The big Intermodal South America show held last week in Sao Paulo, Brazil, gets high marks from Jim Bellinder, Vice President, Cargo Sales Americas – United Airlines. “United Cargo always gains high value from our presence at Intermodal South America. We benefitted again this year from the opportunity to interact with many high-level decision makers in a supportive environment. Staying connected to our customers ensures we will continue to expand our business in this very dynamic region. “We discussed creative customized solutions with several customers and had the chance to review emerging trends and business conditions with many more. United’s strength in Asia was a focus, as interest remains strong in the Latin-to-Asia trade lane. The outbound Latin-to-Asia market continues to grow, led by the automotive and aerospace sectors along with perishables and pharmaceuticals. “On the subject of pharma, we highlighted the many ways we’re enhancing our TempControl business: expanding the network, offering new product options, making new containers available, and elevating our customer service. We were also encouraged by the level of interest in the e-AWB, with a number of customers stating their intentions to explore or adopt the process. “I’m hoping for the same strong level of customer connection at the CNS Partnership Conference next week. We’re looking forward to a series of customer meetings less formal than in the past: plainspoken and practical conversations about how we can contribute to each other’s success. Now that customers have seen United Cargo’s new ‘business friendly’ ads and brand identity, we want to support those ideas with deeper levels of partnership and collaboration.” Sabiha |
