Tech & Service AX-DAX

    A newcomer to the ranks of the air cargo industry believes it recognizes the formula for success in a very competitive business; a genuine integration of high levels of personal service combined with advanced technology.
     Putting first things first, Dependable AirCargo Express or “DAX” combines a nifty name with a network of company owned and operated offices within the U.S. and overseas.
     DAX is offering shippers of every size and description a complete menu of logistic services for both exports and imports.
     DAX is the newest entry into a family of successful cargo operations.
     DHX-Dependable Hawaiian Express, recently completing its 25th year in business, has become the dominant freight organization serving the Hawaiian and Guam markets.
     A sister company, Dependable Global Express, doing business as DGX was started in 1999, and is a growing factor in international trade.
     DAX is the combination of the air freight operations of these companies.
     At the helm of DAX is Gloria Whittington, Managing Director, a twenty-year veteran in freight operations with both airline and freight forwarding experience.
     She is assisted by a well-trusted trained team of experienced staff members both at the company's Rancho Dominguez, California global headquarters and at its worldwide facilities.
     Commented Ms. Whittington on the formation of DAX:
     "Our sister companies always moved shipments by air but service was primarily on an ad hoc basis to complement our surface and ocean capabilities.
     “Demand by our customers for air service, however, has grown at such a rapid pace, we have created a separate, stand alone organization.
     “DAX has its own staff, an international network of full service facilities and equally important, information technology (IT) capabilities that are one of the most advanced in the industry."
     Ms. Whittington noted that DAX' relationship with airlines, particularly those serving the important Asian and South Pacific markets, "is excellent.
     “We enjoy a close working relationship with both all-cargo carriers to handle the larger, heavy weight and oversized 'main deck' cargo, and passenger airlines that have 'lower deck' cargo capabilities.
     “DAX can offer our customers a greater number of routing options by using both freighters and passenger carriers."
     Although DAX will have the capabilities to handle all weight breaks, its primary shipments are in the "heavyweight" category of more than 50 lbs.
     "We find that shipments of heavyweight cargo are not getting the care and attention they deserve.
     "With DAX now operating as a completely independent, full service domestic and international cargo organization, we can offer U.S. commerce and industry access to domestic and worldwide markets," Ms. Whittington concluded.
