Arrow Cargo Appoints Unitpool
Arrow Cargo, a Miami-based freighter operator covering the whole of Central and South America, has appointed Unitpool to secure its ULD supply and management requirements. Working with Unitpool will provide Arrow with the flexibility and reliability that it needs to secure the commitments of its scheduled and charter operations, and to focus on its growth plans outside of South America.
Unitpool’s Commercial Director, Lou Cordoba, commented: “We are pleased to welcome Arrow Cargo to our group of pooling customers. ULD management for cargo operations is high in complexity, and we are certain that our experience working with AirBridgeCargo, Etihad’s freighter operation and returning customer Cargoitalia, will allow us to provide Arrow’s growing operation with the support and dedication that it needs. It is also a welcomed opportunity for Unitpool to strengthen its network in
“Appointing Unitpool ensures that we will benefit from the flexibility and cost effectiveness of paying for airworthy ULDs as we need them to secure our expansion plans. We look forward to working with Unitpool and becoming a member of their growing pool”, said Chris Negele, Director of Safety at Arrow Cargo.
The agreement, which includes the acquisition of the Arrow’s ULDs, full management services, repairs, procurement and integration within Unitpool’s R7 fleet, will commence September 1st, 2009.
